Yohanes 8:53
Konteks8:53 You aren’t greater than our father Abraham who died, are you? 1 And the prophets died too! Who do you claim to be?”
Yohanes 7:22
Konteks7:22 However, because Moses gave you the practice of circumcision 2 (not that it came from Moses, but from the forefathers), you circumcise a male child 3 on the Sabbath.
[8:53] 1 tn Questions prefaced with μή (mh) in Greek anticipate a negative answer. This can sometimes be indicated by using a “tag” at the end in English (here the tag is “are you?”).
[7:22] 2 tn Grk “gave you circumcision.”
[7:22] 3 tn Grk “a man.” While the text literally reads “circumcise a man” in actual fact the practice of circumcising male infants on the eighth day after birth (see Phil 3:5) is primarily what is in view here.
