μεθερμηνεύω

Matthew 1:23 μεθερμηνευόμενον· being translated;

“Behold, the virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call Him Immanuel” (which means, “God with us”).

Here: “When translated.” Matthew steps out of the quotation to give the Hebrew name's meaning for Greek-speaking readers. He wants them to hear the sentence inside the name.

Mark 5:41 μεθερμηνευόμενον, being translated,

Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”

Here: 'When translated'. Mark uses the same formula at 15:22 (Golgotha) and 15:34 (Eloi, Eloi). It shows his readers did not know Aramaic and that he kept the original sound on purpose.

Mark 15:22 μεθερμηνευόμενον, being translated,

They brought Jesus to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull.

Mark 15:34 μεθερμηνευόμενον· being translated;

At the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”

Here: 'When translated'. Mark writes for Greek speakers who do not know Aramaic. He does the same in 5:41 and 15:22.

John 1:38 μεθερμηνευόμενον meaning

Jesus turned and saw them following. “What do you want?” He asked. They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”

Here: 'When translated'. John stops to explain a Semitic word for Greek-speaking readers, as he does again with 'Messiah' (1:41) and 'Cephas' (1:42).

John 1:41 μεθερμηνευόμενον being translated

He first found his brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated as Christ).

Here: 'When translated'. John regularly stops to translate Hebrew and Aramaic words for Greek-speaking readers (Rabbi in 1:38, Cephas in 1:42, Siloam in 9:7).

Acts 4:36 μεθερμηνευόμενον being translated

Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas (meaning Son of Encouragement),

Here: 'When translated'. The standard New Testament formula for glossing a Semitic word (e.g. Matt 1:23 'Immanuel… translated, God with us'; Acts 13:8). Luke is explaining an Aramaic name to Greek readers.

Acts 13:8 μεθερμηνεύεται means

But Elymas the sorcerer (for that is what his name means) opposed them and tried to turn the proconsul from the faith.

Here: "Is translated." It is Luke's standard formula for carrying a foreign word over into Greek (compare Acts 4:36 on Barnabas). It suggests Elymas is a non-Greek word.
