UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun

Φαρισαῖε τυφλέ

Pharisee blind

Jesus is not referring to a specific Pharisee. He is referring to every Pharisee who acts in the way he has described. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in plural form or in another way. If you use the plural form, make sure that you express the commands in this verse in plural form. Alternate translation: “Blind Pharisees”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

Φαρισαῖε τυφλέ

Pharisee blind

Here, Jesus speaks as if this Pharisee were blind. He means that he does not know what is right. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea in simile form or state the meaning plainly. See how you translated the word blind in 23:17. Alternate translation: “You, Pharisee, are like a blind person” or “You, Pharisee, do not know what is right”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

καθάρισον πρῶτον τὸ ἐντὸς τοῦ ποτηρίου καὶ τῆς παροψίδος, ἵνα γένηται καὶ τὸ ἐκτὸς αὐτῶν καθαρόν

cleanse first the_‹part› inside ˱of˲_the cup and ˱of˲_the dish in_order_that /may/_become also the_‹part› outside ˱of˲_them clean

Here Jesus continues to speak of the scribes and Pharisees as if they were a cup and a plate. He means that they should actually do what is right, and then they will also appear to be doing what is right. See how you expressed the similar ideas in 23:25. Alternate translation: “you should be like cups and plates whose inside is clean so that their outside is also clean” or “Actually do what is right, and then you will also look like you do what is right”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

καθάρισον

cleanse

Since Jesus is addressing one Pharisee, the command here is singular. However, if you refer to plural Pharisees as an earlier note suggested, you should use the plural form here.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὸ ἐντὸς

the_‹part› inside

Here, much as in 23:25, the word inside could refer to: (1) the inside of the dishes themselves. Alternate translation: “the inside parts” (2) what the dishes have inside them. Alternate translation: “what is inside”

Note 6 topic: translate-unknown

τοῦ ποτηρίου καὶ τῆς παροψίδος

˱of˲_the cup and ˱of˲_the dish

See how you translated the words cup and plate in 23:25. Alternate translation: “of the glass and of the bowl” or “of eating utensils”
