Luke 19:33

19:33 As ¹  they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, ²  “Why are you untying that colt?”

Luke 19:35

19:35 Then ³  they brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks ⁴  on the colt, ⁵  and had Jesus get on ⁶  it.

Luke 19:30

19:30 telling them, ⁷  “Go to the village ahead of you. ⁸  When ⁹  you enter it, you will find a colt tied there that has never been ridden. ¹⁰  Untie it and bring it here.

[19:33]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[19:33]  ² tn Grk “said to them.”

[19:35]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[19:35]  ⁴ tn Grk “garments”; but this refers in context to their outer cloaks. The action is like 2 Kgs 9:13.

[19:35]  ⁵ sn See Zech 9:9.

[19:35]  ⁶ 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.

[19:30]  ⁵ tn Grk “saying.”

[19:30]  ⁶ tn Grk “the village lying before [you]” (BDAG 530 s.v. κατέναντι 2.a).

[19:30]  ⁷ tn Grk “in which entering.” This is a continuation of the previous sentence in Greek, but because of the length and complexity of the construction a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[19:30]  ⁸ tn Grk “a colt tied there on which no one of men has ever sat.”
