Luke 7:6

7:6 So ¹  Jesus went with them. When ²  he was not far from the house, the centurion ³  sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself, ⁴  for I am not worthy ⁵  to have you come under my roof.

Galatians 6:17

6:17 From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear the marks of Jesus on my body. ⁶ 

¹ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the resultative action.

² tn The participle ἀπέχοντος (apeconto") has been taken temporally.

³ sn See the note on the word centurion in 7:2.

⁴ tn Or “do not be bothered.”

⁵ sn Note the humility in the centurion’s statement I am not worthy in light of what others think (as v. 4 notes). See Luke 5:8 for a similar example of humility.

⁶ tn Paul is probably referring to scars from wounds received in the service of Jesus, although the term στίγμα (stigma) may imply ownership and suggest these scars served as brands (L&N 8.55; 33.481; 90.84).
