NET Notes |
1 tn Grk “standing”; the Greek participle has been translated as a finite verb. 2 tn Grk “even lift up his eyes” (an idiom). 3 tn The prayer is a humble call for forgiveness. The term for mercy (ἱλάσκομαι, Jilaskomai) is associated with the concept of a request for atonement (BDAG 473-74 s.v. 1; Ps 51:1, 3; 25:11; 34:6, 18). 4 tn Grk “the sinner.” The tax collector views himself not just as any sinner but as the worst of all sinners. See ExSyn 222-23. |
