Key for above GNTs: yellow:punctuation differs (from our SR-GNT base).
6:30-44 The disciples’ mission concludes (6:6-13, 30-34), followed by the account of the feeding of the 5,000 (6:35-44; see also Matt 14:13-21; Luke 9:10-17; John 6:1-15). The feeding of the 4,000 is sufficiently different to indicate that these were two separate occasions (see Mark 8:1-10).
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
ἐπέταξεν αὐτοῖς ἀνακλῖναι πάντας
˱he˲_commanded ˱to˲_them /to/_sit_down all
The pronoun them could refer to: (1) all the people who were there. In this case, Jesus directly commanded the crowd to recline. Alternate translation: “he commanded the whole crowd to recline” (2) the disciples, who them told all the people who were there to recline. In this case, Jesus commands the disciples, who command the crowd. Alternate translation: “he commanded the disciples to have all the people recline”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations
αὐτοῖς ἀνακλῖναι πάντας, συμπόσια συμπόσια ἐπὶ τῷ χλωρῷ χόρτῳ
˱to˲_them /to/_sit_down all groups ˱by˲_groups on the green grass
It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: “them all, ‘Recline group by group on the green grass’”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἀνακλῖναι
/to/_sit_down
In Jesus’ culture, people would usually recline, or lay on one side, when they were eating. If it would be helpful in your language, you could refer to the position in which people eat in your culture, or you could just refer to eating. Alternate translation: “to sit down to eat” or “to get ready to eat”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
συμπόσια συμπόσια
groups ˱by˲_groups
Here, the phrase group by group indicates that the people were supposed to sit down in many smaller groups of people. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “in many smaller groups” or “in separate groups”
Note 5 topic: translate-unknown
τῷ χλωρῷ χόρτῳ
the green grass
Mark describes the grass as green because it was growing and healthy. If your readers would not be familiar with green grass, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “the growing grass” or “the healthy grass”
