TSNTyndale Study Notes:

9:1-17 Controversy ensued among Jesus’ opponents, the teachers of religious law and Pharisees (9:1-13), and among the disciples of John the Baptist (9:14-17).

TTNTyndale Theme Notes:

Eating Together

Eating meals together was a religious matter among the Pharisees and other observant Jews. Righteous Jews enacted many regulations to prevent themselves from being ceremonially defiled at meals. It was not done so much to exclude others as to show commitment to the law.

Most Jews lived by the food laws most of the time. Jesus did so, too. But he regularly, purposefully, and offensively ate with those who were ritually unclean or whose commitment to the law was inferior. Sharing a meal with another indicated both covenantal and social equality (cp. Matt 26:26-29; 2 Kgs 25:27-30). The Pharisees, believing that separation from such sinners was a necessity for righteousness, were offended by Jesus’ sharing meals with such people (Matt 9:10-11; 11:19; 21:28-32; Luke 7:36-50; 15:1-2; 19:1-10).

Jesus’ sharing meals with sinful people enacted God’s grace—he extended God’s love and forgiveness, welcoming open participation in a new society. This practice developed into the early Christian communion meals (Acts 2:46; 1 Cor 11:17-34). And as is clear from the Last Supper, the meals Jesus shared with his followers anticipated the feast in the Kingdom of Heaven (Matt 26:29; see 8:11-12). The apostle Paul extended Jesus’ practice to enable fellowship between Jews and Gentiles in the church (see Gal 2:11-21). Jesus tore down the barriers separating us from one another and from God (Eph 2:14-18) and calls us into fellowship with all his people.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

he

The pronoun he refers to Jesus. If this is not clear for your readers, you could use the person's name here. Alternate translation: [Jesus]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

ἀκούσας

/having/_heard

Here, the word this refers to what the Pharisees asked the disciples. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [having heard what the Pharisees asked]

Note 3 topic: writing-proverbs

οὐ χρείαν ἔχουσιν οἱ ἰσχύοντες ἰατροῦ, ἀλλὰ οἱ κακῶς ἔχοντες

not need /are/_having the_‹ones› being_strong ˱of˲_/a/_physician but the_‹ones› sickly being

Jesus begins his response by quoting or creating a proverb, a short saying about something that is generally true in life. This proverb draws a figurative comparison. Just as sick people need to see a doctor to be healed, so sinners need to see Jesus in order to be forgiven and restored. But since Jesus explains the comparison in the next verse, you do not need to explain it here. Rather, you could translate the proverb itself in a way that will be meaningful in your language and culture. Alternate translation: [People who are well do not need to see a doctor, but people who are unwell do]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

οἱ κακῶς ἔχοντες

the_‹ones› the_‹ones› sickly being

Jesus is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [the ones having sickness have need of a physician]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

οἱ κακῶς ἔχοντες

the_‹ones› the_‹ones› sickly being

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of sickness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the ones who are sick]
