[14:13]  1 tn This term, δοχή (doch), is a third term for a meal (see v. 12) that could also be translated “banquet, feast.”

[14:13]  2 sn Normally the term means crippled as a result of being maimed or mutilated (L&N 23.177).

[14:13]  3 tn Here “and” has been supplied between the last two elements in the series in keeping with English style.

[14:13]  4 sn This list of needy is like Luke 7:22. See Deut 14:28-29; 16:11-14; 26:11-13.

[5:29]  5 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[5:29]  6 sn A great banquet refers to an elaborate meal. Many of the events in Luke take place in the context of meal fellowship: 7:36-50; 9:12-17; 10:38-42; 11:37-54; 14:1-24; 22:7-38; 24:29-32, 41-43.

[5:29]  7 tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:29]  8 tn Grk “reclining.” This term reflects the normal practice in 1st century Jewish culture of eating a meal in a semi-reclining position. Since it is foreign to most modern readers, the translation “sitting” has been substituted.
