## translationWords
* [[en:tw:peace]]
## translationNotes
* (Jesus continues to teach his disciples.)
* **Do you think that I came to bring peace on the earth?** - This is a rhetorical question. People expected the Messiah to bring them peace from their enemies. This can be translated as "You should not think that I have come to bring peace on earth." (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_rquestion]])
* **but rather division** - "but I came to bring division"
* **division** - "hostility" or "discord"
* **there will be five in one house divided** - This is an example of the kind of division there will be even within families.
