UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

γὰρ

for

The word translated as For indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: “They should do this because”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

ἐπεφάνη & ἡ χάρις τοῦ Θεοῦ

/has/_appeared & the grace ¬the ˱of˲_God

Paul speaks of the grace of God as if it were a person who has arrived. See the UST for other ways to express this. Alternate translation: “God is now offering his grace”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐπεφάνη γὰρ ἡ χάρις τοῦ Θεοῦ σωτήριος πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις

/has/_appeared for the grace ¬the ˱of˲_God salvation ˱to˲_all people

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of grace, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “For God has been extremely kind by making a way to save all men”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

σωτήριος πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις

salvation ˱to˲_all people

Here the word salvific describes God's grace, meaning that it is like a person who has the characteristic of saving people. Alternate translation: “able to save all men” or “working to save all men” or “bringing salvation for all men”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations

πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις

˱to˲_all people

Although the term men is masculine, Paul is using the word in a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “for all people”
