TSNTyndale Study Notes:

12:1 The antecedent to them is the religious leaders of 11:27 (also in 12:12).
• The beginning description of the story comes from Isa 5:1-7. Jesus’ audience knew the book of Isaiah well and would have immediately recalled this allegory of the vineyard.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parables

ἀμπελῶνα ἄνθρωπος ἐφύτευσεν

/a/_vineyard /a/_man planted

To teach the Jewish leaders, Jesus offers a story or illustration. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: “Listen to this story: A man planted a vineyard”

Note 2 topic: writing-participants

ἀμπελῶνα ἄνθρωπος ἐφύτευσεν

/a/_vineyard /a/_man planted

Jesus uses the phrase A man planted a vineyard to introduce the main character in the story. Use a natural form in your language for introducing the main character in a story. Alternate translation: “There once was a man who planted a vineyard”

Note 3 topic: translate-unknown

φραγμὸν

/a/_fence

A hedge is a thick wall made from bushy plants that were planted close together. If your readers would not be familiar with this type of wall, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “a wall made of bushes” or “wall of plants”

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

ἐξέδετο αὐτὸν γεωργοῖς

rented_out it ˱to˲_/the/_tenant_farmers

As the rest of the story shows, the man rented the vineyard not for regular cash payments, but under an arrangement that entitled him to a share of the crop in exchange for the use of the land. If an arrangement like that would not be familiar to your readers, you could translate this in a way that explains it. Alternate translation: “allowed some grape farmers to use his vineyard in exchange for a share of the crop”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

γεωργοῖς

˱to˲_/the/_tenant_farmers

While farmers is a general term for anyone who farms the ground, in this context it refers to people who tend grape vines and grow grapes. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “vine dressers” or “grape farmers”
