Luke 19:27

19:27 But as for these enemies of mine who did not want me to be their king, ¹  bring them here and slaughter ²  them ³  in front of me!’”

Luke 19:35

19:35 Then ⁴  they brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks ⁵  on the colt, ⁶  and had Jesus get on ⁷  it.

[19:27]  ¹ tn Grk “to rule over them.”

[19:27]  ² tn This term, when used of people rather than animals, has some connotations of violence and mercilessness (L&N 20.72).

[19:27]  ³ sn Slaughter them. To reject the king is to face certain judgment from him.

[19:35]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[19:35]  ⁵ tn Grk “garments”; but this refers in context to their outer cloaks. The action is like 2 Kgs 9:13.

[19:35]  ⁶ sn See Zech 9:9.

[19:35]  ⁷ tn Although ἐπεβίβασαν (epebibasan) is frequently translated “set [Jesus] on it” or “put [Jesus] on it,” when used of a riding animal the verb can mean “to cause to mount” (L&N 15.98); thus here “had Jesus get on it.” The degree of assistance is not specified.
