Luke 19:5

19:5 And when Jesus came to that place, he looked up ¹  and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down quickly, ²  because I must ³  stay at your house today.” ⁴ 

Revelation 3:20

3:20 Listen! ⁵  I am standing at the door and knocking! If anyone hears my voice and opens the door I will come into his home ⁶  and share a meal with him, and he with me.

¹ tc Most mss (A [D] W [Ψ] ˹³ 33^vid Ï latt) read “Jesus looking up, saw him and said.” The words “saw him and” are not in א B L T Θ Ë¹ 579 1241 2542 pc co. Both the testimony for the omission and the natural tendency toward scribal expansion argue for the shorter reading here.

² tn Grk “hastening, come down.” σπεύσας (speusa") has been translated as a participle of manner.

³ sn I must stay. Jesus revealed the necessity of his associating with people like Zacchaeus (5:31-32). This act of fellowship indicated acceptance.

⁴ sn On today here and in v. 9, see the note on today in 2:11.

⁵ tn Grk “Behold.”

⁶ tn Grk “come in to him.”
