UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-newevent

καὶ

and

Here, the word And introduces the next major event in the story. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave And untranslated. Alternate translation: “Then,”

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

προσελθόντες & πειράζοντες

/having/_approached & tempting_‹him›

Here, the word testing introduces the purpose for which the Pharisees and Sadducees approached Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a purpose. Alternate translation: “having approached with the goal of testing him”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

ἐπηρώτησαν αὐτὸν σημεῖον ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐπιδεῖξαι αὐτοῖς

˱they˲_asked him ˱for˲_/a/_sign out_of the sky /to/_show ˱to˲_them

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: “asked him, ‘Show us a sign from heaven!’”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

σημεῖον ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ

˱for˲_/a/_sign out_of the sky

The implication is that the Pharisees and Sadducees wanted Jesus to do a miracle to prove that his authority came from God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “a sign from heaven that proved that his authority was from God”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ

out_of the sky

Here, the phrase from heaven indicates that the sign originates in heaven, where God rules. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “from heaven, where God rules” or “that comes from the place where God is”
