TSNTyndale Study Notes:

26:53 thousands (literally twelve legions): Jesus used Roman military language (a legion consisted of approximately 6,000 soldiers) to describe the aid he could receive from God. Jesus was not a helpless victim; he permitted his own arrest.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

ἢ δοκεῖς ὅτι οὐ δύναμαι παρακαλέσαι τὸν Πατέρα μου, καὶ παραστήσει μοι ἄρτι πλείω δώδεκα λεγιῶνας ἀγγέλων?

or ˱you˲_/are/_supposing that not ˱I˲_/am/_being_able (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἢ δοκεῖς ὅτι οὐ δύναμαι ἄρτι παρακαλέσαι τὸν Πατέρα μου καὶ παραστήσει μοι πλείω δώδεκα λεγεῶνων ἀγγέλων)

Jesus is using the question form to teach the disciple who drew the sword. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: “Indeed, I am able to beg my Father, and he will provide me now with more than 12 legions of angels” or “Surely you know that I am able to beg my Father, and he will provide me now with more than 12 legions of angels!”

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

or

Here, the word Or introduces a contrasting alternative to “taking a sword” (see 26:52). Jesus provides this alternative to show further that “taking a sword” is wrong. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces an alternative, or you could leave Or untranslated. Alternate translation: “Indeed,” or “As a matter of fact,”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

δοκεῖς

˱you˲_/are/_supposing

Here, the pronoun you is singular because Jesus is speaking to the man who drew his sword.

Note 4 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples

τὸν Πατέρα

the Father

Father is an important title that describe the relationship between God the Father and Jesus his Son.

Note 5 topic: translate-unknown

πλείω δώδεκα λεγιῶνας ἀγγέλων

more twelve (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἢ δοκεῖς ὅτι οὐ δύναμαι ἄρτι παρακαλέσαι τὸν Πατέρα μου καὶ παραστήσει μοι πλείω δώδεκα λεγεῶνων ἀγγέλων)

The word legions is a military term. Each legion is a group of about 6,000 soldiers. Here Jesus means that God could send a large number of angels and easily stop those who are arresting Jesus. The exact number of angels is not important. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable military term in your language or a more general term. Alternate translation: “more than 12 regiments of angels” or “more than 12 large groups of angels”

Jesus’ Arrest, Trial, Crucifixion, and Burial

Matthew 26-27; Mark 14-15; Luke 22-23; John 13-19

On the Thursday before he was crucified, Jesus had arranged to share the Passover meal with his disciples in an upper room, traditionally thought to be located in the Essene Quarter of Jerusalem. After they finished the meal, they went to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus often met with his disciples. There Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus’ own disciples, betrayed him to soldiers sent from the High Priest, and they took Jesus to the High Priest’s residence. In the morning the leading priests and teachers of the law put Jesus on trial and found him guilty of blasphemy. The council sent Jesus to stand trial for treason before the Roman governor Pontius Pilate, who resided at the Praetorium while in Jerusalem. The Praetorium was likely located at the former residence of Herod the Great, who had died over 30 years earlier. When Pilate learned that Jesus was from Galilee, he sent him to Herod Antipas, who had jurisdiction over Galilee. But when Jesus gave no answer to Herod’s many questions, Herod and his soldiers sent him back to Pilate, who conceded to the people’s demands that Jesus be crucified. Jesus was forced to carry his cross out of the city gate to Golgotha, meaning Skull Hill, referring to what may have been a small unquarried hill in the middle of an old quarry just outside the gate. After Jesus was unable to carry his cross any further, a man named Simon from Cyrene was forced to carry it for him. There at Golgotha they crucified Jesus. After Jesus died, his body was hurriedly taken down before nightfall and placed in a newly cut, rock tomb owned by Joseph of Arimathea, a member of the Jewish high council. This tomb was likely located at the perimeter of the old quarry.
