2:23-28 In this controversy, Jesus and his disciples are accused of breaking the Sabbath (Exod 20:8-11). Picking grain by hand in another person’s field was lawful (Deut 23:25). The charge was that by rubbing the chaff from the kernels, the disciples were working on the Sabbath, which was forbidden (Exod 34:21).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / go
εἰσῆλθεν
˱he˲_came_in
In a context such as this, your language might say “came” instead of went. Alternate translation: “he came”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ
the house ¬the ˱of˲_God
Here Jesus uses the phrase the house of God to refer to the tabernacle, the place where God’s presence was. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “the tabernacle” or “the sanctuary”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τοὺς ἄρτους τῆς Προθέσεως
the bread ˱of˲_the Presence
The phrase the loaves of the presence refers to loaves of bread that were placed every day on a table in the tabernacle or temple as an offering to God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “the loaves that were presented to God” or “the loaves of bread that were placed in God’s presence every morning”
Note 4 topic: grammar-connect-exceptions
οὓς οὐκ ἔξεστιν φαγεῖν, εἰ μὴ τοὺς ἱερεῖς
which not ˱it˲_/is/_permitting /to/_eat except ¬not/lest the priests
If, in your language, it would appear that Jesus was making a statement here and then contradicting it, you could reword this to avoid using an exception clause. Alternate translation: “which is lawful for only the priests to eat”
