This note has the ULT text followed by three possible meanings. The word translated as “the folds of your robe” refers to the loose parts of the robe. Most scholars believe it refers here to the sleeves, but it could also refer to the loose part at the bottom or also to the folds in the middle, around the belt. > But Simon Peter, when he saw it, ***fell down at Jesus’ knees*** (Luke 5:8 ULT) -* **fell down at Jesus’ knees** - Possible meanings are 1) “knelt down before Jesus” or 2) “bowed down at Jesus’ feet” or 3) “lay down on the ground at Jesus’ feet.” Peter did not fall accidentally.

He did this as a sign of humility and respect for Jesus. This note explains what “fell down at Jesus’ knees” might mean. The first meaning is most likely correct, but the other meanings are also possible. If your language does not have a general expression that could include various actions like these, you may need to choose one of these possibilities that describe more specifically what Simon Peter did. It is also helpful to think about why Simon Peter did this, and what kind of action would communicate the same attitude of humility and respect in your culture. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/translate/resources-fofs/01.md b/translate/resources-fofs/01.md index 78c90da..63fa44d 100644 --- a/translate/resources-fofs/01.md +++ b/translate/resources-fofs/01.md @@ -13,7 +13,7 @@ In order to translate the meaning, you need to be able to recognize the figure o > Many will come ***in my name*** and say, ‘I am he,’ and they will lead many astray.

The phrase “in my name” does not refer to the speaker’s name (Jesus), but to his person and authority. (Thus, in this context, the word "name" is a *metonym* for the ideas of "person/authority".) The Note explains the metonymy in this passage by giving two alternate translations. After that, there is a link to the UTA page about metonymy. Click on the link to learn about metonymy and general strategies for translating metonyms. Because this phrase is also a common idiom, the Note includes a link to the UTA page that explains idioms. diff --git a/translate/resources-porp/01.md b/translate/resources-porp/01.md index 089e89d..a771441 100755 --- a/translate/resources-porp/01.md +++ b/translate/resources-porp/01.md @@ -13,7 +13,7 @@ When many scholars say that a word or phrase means one thing, and many others sa > But Simon Peter, when he saw it, ***fell down at Jesus’ knees***, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.” (Luke 5:8 ULT) -* **fell down at Jesus’ knees** - Possible meanings are 1) “knelt down before Jesus” or 2) “bowed down at Jesus feet” or 3) “lay down on the ground at Jesus feet.” Peter did not fall accidentally.
