The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures, “Appendix 2C: With the Blood of God’s Own Son”

1985 · p.1141 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“Grammatically, this passage could be translated as in the King James Version and Douay Version, “with his own blood.” That has been a difficult thought for many. … A noun in the singular number would be understood after “his own,” most likely God’s closest relative, his only-begotten Son Jesus Christ.”

The organisation's defence. It quotes J. H. Moulton's Prolegomena (1930 ed., p. 90) on ὁ ἴδιος used absolutely as a term of endearment for near relations, and F. J. A. Hort's remark in the Westcott and Hort appendix that 'it is by no means impossible that ΥΙΟΥ dropped out after ΤΟΥΙΔΙΟΥ at some very early transcription'. It also lists six translations from 1903 onwards that supply 'Son'.

Nota de confiança. Appendix opened in full on wol.jw.org on 19 September 2026; page marker 1141 read from the page-number span. I have not opened Moulton's Prolegomena or the Westcott and Hort appendix to verify those quotations against the printed originals.

Notes. The appendix is unusually candid: it concedes that 'with his own blood' is grammatically possible and states the theological difficulty openly.

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition), “Study note on Acts 20:28, 'with the blood of his own Son'”

2013 · study note, Acts 20:28 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“with the blood of his own Son: Lit., “through the blood of the own (one).” Grammatically, the Greek expression could be translated “with the blood of his own” or “with his own blood,” so the context has to be taken into consideration. In Greek, the expression ho iʹdi·os (“his own”) could stand alone without a clarifying noun or pronoun … In non-Biblical Greek papyri, the phrase is used as a term of endearment to refer to close relatives.”

The current note repeats the 1985 appendix's argument and again concedes the alternative rendering.

Notes. The same page carries a separate note: 'God: Some ancient manuscripts read “the Lord” here, but the main text reading “God” has strong manuscript support and is viewed by many scholars as the original reading.'

The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures, “Acts 20:28 (word-for-word English under the Greek)”

1985 · Acts 20:28 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“τὴν the ἐκκλησίαν ecclesia τοῦ of the θεοῦ, God, ἣν which περιεποιήσατο he reserved for self διὰ through τοῦ the αἵματος blood τοῦ of the ἰδίου. own (one).”

The Greek ends with τοῦ ἰδίου, 'of the own (one)'. There is no word for 'Son' in the Greek; the question is whether one is to be understood.
