Exegesis
The temporal idiom en tois sabbasin {ἐν τοῖς σάββασιν | en toîs sábbasin}, literally ‘in the Sabbaths,’ conveys ‘on the Sabbath’ and underscores the habitual observance of the weekly rest day. English renderings maintain the participial nuance as ‘was teaching’ and choose between ‘on the Sabbaths’ for formal fidelity or ‘on a Sabbath’ for dynamic clarity, placing adverbial phrases at the end to mirror Greek word order while ensuring readability.
