4.17 Exinde. Postquam baptizatus est. Baptismus idoneos facit ad prædicandum. Exinde, id est, tradito Joanne: quia lege desinente sequitur Evangelium, ut auroram sol. Humilis magister qui doctrinam discipuli non impedit, sed exspectat donec consummet cursum suum. In quo docet, ne quis ab inferiore persona sermonem contemnat. Unde Apostolus. Si cui revelatum fuerit, prior taceat. Pœnitentiam agite. Eadem quæ præco prædicat: ut ostendatur non alius quam qui in voce clamaverat. Christus enim verbum quod clamat in Jordane organo et in omnibus qui ab initio aliquid divinitus dixerunt: et tamen iste solus vox, quia per eum præsens verbum ostenditur quod alii longe nuntiaverunt. Inter enim vocem et verbum nihil est medium, sed ut vox sonuit, mox verbum percipitur: sicut Joannes clausus destitit: Christus virtutibus claruit. Unde Joannes est figura prophetarum et legis, qui vere sunt vox clamantis sapientiæ Dei, quorum Joannes est finis, quibus cessantibus solum verbum, quod in eis sonuerat, per se ostenditur. RAB. Hæc prædicatio Christi in Capharnaum coruscantibus miraculis incepta, dicitur, etc., usque ad Baptista incarcerato prædicare incepit.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἀπὸ τότε

from then

Here, the word time refers to when Jesus began to live in Capernaum (see 4:13). If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [From when he began to live in Capernaum,] or [After he moved to Capernaum,]

Note 2 topic: writing-quotations

κηρύσσειν καὶ λέγειν

/to_be/_proclaiming and /to_be/_saying

Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: [to preach] or [to preach, saying]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular

μετανοεῖτε

/be/_repenting

Because Jesus is speaking to people in general, the command Repent is plural here.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἤγγικεν

/has/_neared

Here Matthew uses this phrase in the sense of near in time. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. See how you translated the similar phrase in 3:2 Alternate translation: [is about to begin] or [is about to happen]
