RBT Hebrew Literal:
Darnel : "False Wheat"
And within the Sleeping, the Hated One came upon the Men of himself,29 and he sowed darnel upward middle of the Wheat and he went away. Darnel vs. Wheat.
"Ζιζάνιον" (zizanion) is a Greek word that refers to "darnel" or "tares". It specifically denotes a type of weed or plant that resembles wheat but is considered undesirable because it can be harmful or inferior. In some regions it is so similar to wheat it is called "false wheat." (cf. Lolium temulentum)
Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
And in men's sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares in the midst of the wheat, and went away.
And in men's sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares in the midst of the wheat, and went away.
LITV Translation:
But while the men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed darnel in the midst of the wheat, and went away.
But while the men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed darnel in the midst of the wheat, and went away.
ESV Translation:
but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.
but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.
Footnotes
| 29 | The Greek τοὺς ἀνθρώπους "the men" is in the accusative, meaning it must be associated with an action, in this case, "coming." Translating the words as a nominative sense is a false representation. |
