[11:21]  ¹ tn The referent of the expression “a strong man” is Satan.

[11:21]  ² tn The word αὐλή (aulh) describes any building large and elaborate enough to have an interior courtyard, thus “dwelling, palace, mansion” (L&N 7.6).

[11:21]  ³ tn Grk “his goods are in peace.”

[19:38]  ⁴ sn Luke adds the title king to the citation from Ps 118:26 to make clear who was meant (see Luke 18:38). The psalm was used in looking for the deliverance of the end, thus leading to the Pharisees’ reaction.

[19:38]  ⁵ sn A quotation from Ps 118:26.

[24:36]  ⁷ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:36]  ⁸ tc The words “and said to them, ‘Peace be with you’” are lacking in some Western mss (D it). But the clause is otherwise well attested, being found in Ì⁷⁵ and the rest of the ms tradition, and should be considered an original part of Luke.
