UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

δὲ

and

Here, the word But introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: [Then]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture

ἔρχονται

/are/_coming

To call attention to a development in the story, Jesus uses the present tense in past narration. If it would not be natural to do that in your language, you could use the past tense in your translation. Alternate translation: [came]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

λέγουσαι, κύριε, κύριε, ἄνοιξον ἡμῖν!

saying sir sir open_up ˱to˲_us

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [repeatedly calling the bridegroom lord and asking him to open for them.]

Note 4 topic: writing-politeness

κύριε, κύριε

sir sir

In Jesus’ culture, the word lord was a polite way for a young woman to address an older man. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different word or phrase that is a polite way to address an older man in your culture. Alternate translation: [Honorable sir]

Note 5 topic: writing-quotations

λέγουσαι

saying

If you keep the direct quotation, consider natural ways of introducing it in your language. Alternate translation: [and they said]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἄνοιξον ἡμῖν

open_up ˱to˲_us

Here foolish virgins are implying that they want the door opened for them so they can join the wedding celebration. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [open the door so that we can join the wedding feast]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative

ἄνοιξον

open_up

This is an imperative, but it should be translated as a polite request rather than as a command. It may be helpful to add an expression such as “please” to make this clear. Alternate translation: [we ask that you open]

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

ἄνοιξον

open_up

Since the virgins is talking to the bridegroom, the imperative here is singular.

Jerusalem during the New Testament

By the time of the New Testament, the ancient city of Jerusalem had been transformed from the relatively small fortress of David’s day (2 Samuel 5:6-10; 1 Chronicles 11:4-9) into a major city with a Temple that rivaled the greatest temples in the Roman world. Just prior to Jesus’ birth, Herod the Great completely renovated and expanded the Temple of the Lord, and he also built a lavish palace for himself, various pools (where Jesus occasionally performed healings), public buildings, and military citadels, including the Antonia Fortress, which overlooked the Temple. Wealthy residents, including the high priest, occupied extravagant houses in the Upper City, while the poorer residents were relegated to less desirable areas like the Lower City. The Essene Quarter was so named because many of its residents belonged to the Essenes, a strict religious sect that was known for its careful attention to the law of Moses. Across the Kidron Valley lay the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus often met with his disciples (Matthew 26:36-46; Mark 14:32-53; John 18:1-14). Further east was the Mount of Olives, where Jesus began his triumphal entry one week before his crucifixion (Matthew 21:1-11; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:28-40; John 12:12-19), taught his disciples about the last days (Matthew 24-25; Mark 13), and eventually ascended to heaven after his resurrection (Luke 24:50-53; Acts 1:1-11).
