Luke 9:35-36

9:35 Then ⁴  a voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, my Chosen One. ⁵  Listen to him!” ⁶  9:36 After ⁷  the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. So ⁸  they kept silent and told no one ⁹  at that time ¹⁰  anything of what they had seen.

Luke 23:46

23:46 Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” ¹¹  And after he said this he breathed his last.

[1:44]  ¹ tn Grk “for behold.”

[1:44]  ² tn Grk “when the sound of your greeting [reached] my ears.”

[1:44]  ³ sn On the statement the baby in my womb leaped for joy see both 1:14 and 1:47. This notes a fulfillment of God’s promised word.

[9:35]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[9:35]  ⁵ tc Most mss, especially the later ones, have ἀγαπητός (agaphto", “the one I love”; A C* W ˹³ 33 Ï it), or ἀγαπητὸς ἐν ᾧ (ἠ)υδόκησα (agaphto" en |w (h)udokhsa, “the one I love, in whom I am well pleased”; C³ D Ψ pc) here, instead of ἐκλελεγμένος (eklelegmeno", “the Chosen One”), but these variants are probably assimilations to Matt 17:5 and Mark 9:7. The text behind the translation also enjoys excellent support from Ì^45,75 א B L Ξ [phone] pc co.

[9:35]  ⁶ sn The expression listen to him comes from Deut 18:15 and makes two points: 1) Jesus is a prophet like Moses, a leader-prophet, and 2) they have much yet to learn from him.

[9:36]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:36]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the concluding summary of the account.

[9:36]  ⁹ sn Although the disciples told no one at the time, later they did recount this. The commentary on this scene is 2 Pet 1:17-18.

[9:36]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “in those days.”

[23:46]  ¹⁰ sn A quotation from Ps 31:5. It is a psalm of trust. The righteous, innocent sufferer trusts in God. Luke does not have the cry of pain from Ps 22:1 (cf. Matt 27:46; Mark 15:34), but notes Jesus’ trust instead.
