MARK 2:2 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj

πολλοὶ

many

Mark is using the adjective many as a noun to mean many people. Your language may use adjectives in the same way. If not, you could translate this word with an equivalent phrase. Alternate translation: [many men and women]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

συνήχθησαν

/were/_gathered_together

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: [gathered] or [came together]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

μηκέτι χωρεῖν

no_longer /to_be/_having_room

Here, the clause it could no longer receive means that the house was so full that no one else could fit inside. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [there was no space left] or [no one else could fit]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

μηδὲ τὰ πρὸς τὴν θύραν

not_‹even› ¬which at the door

Here Mark means that there were so many people even outside the house that no one could get near the door. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [and no one could even get to the door] or [and there was no space even at the door into the house]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὸν λόγον

the word

Mark is using the term word to mean the gospel, that Jesus preached using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the gospel]
