1:5 All of Judea: John the Baptist created a lot of interest. It was generally believed that there had been no prophet for over 400 years, so prophets were associated with Israel’s past and with the future reign of the Messiah. John preached repentance like the ancient prophets, and he dressed like the great prophet Elijah (1:6), who was predicted to return in the last days (Mal 4:5).

πᾶσα ἡ Ἰουδαία χώρα καὶ οἱ Ἱεροσολυμεῖται πάντες
all the Judea region and ˱of˲_the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ ἐξεπορεύετο πρὸς αὐτὸν πᾶσα ἡ Ἰουδαία χώρα καὶ οἱ Ἱεροσολυμῖται πάντες καὶ ἐβαπτίζοντο ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Ἰορδάνῃ ποταμῷ ἐξομολογούμενοι τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν)
Mark twice writes all as a generalization for emphasis. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a different way to express the emphasis. Alternate translation: [most of the Judea region and most of the Jerusalemites]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
πᾶσα ἡ Ἰουδαία χώρα
all the Judea region
Here, the phrase all the Judea region represents the people who live in that area. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [all the inhabitants of the Judea region]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / go
ἐξεπορεύετο
/was/_going_out
In a context such as this, your language might say “coming” instead of going. Alternate translation: [were coming out]
Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-time-sequential
ἐβαπτίζοντο ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Ἰορδάνῃ ποταμῷ, ἐξομολογούμενοι τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν
˱they˲_/were_being/_baptized by him in the Jordan river confessing the sins ˱of˲_them
Here the people were confessing their sins before they were being baptized. If it would be helpful in your language, you could rearrange the elements so that these events are in sequential order, or you could use another form to indicate the sequence. Alternate translation: [confessing their sins, they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River] or [were being baptized by him in the Jordan River after they confessed their sins]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἐβαπτίζοντο ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ
˱they˲_/were_being/_baptized by him
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [he was baptizing them]
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐξομολογούμενοι
confessing
Here it is the people who are confessing, not John. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [as they confessed]
