Luke 19:37

19:37 As he approached the road leading down from ¹  the Mount of Olives, ²  the whole crowd of his ³  disciples began to rejoice ⁴  and praise ⁵  God with a loud voice for all the mighty works ⁶  they had seen: ⁷ 

Luke 21:37

21:37 So ⁸  every day Jesus ⁹  was teaching in the temple courts, ¹⁰  but at night he went and stayed ¹¹  on the Mount of Olives. ¹² 

[19:37]  ¹ tn Grk “the descent of”; this could refer to either the slope of the hillside itself or the path leading down from it (the second option has been adopted for the translation, see L&N 15.109).

[19:37]  ² sn See the note on the name Mount of Olives in v. 29.

[19:37]  ³ tn Grk “the”; the Greek article has been translated here as a possessive pronoun (ExSyn 215).

[19:37]  ⁴ tn Here the participle χαίροντες (caironte") has been translated as a finite verb in English; it could also be translated adverbially as a participle of manner: “began to praise God joyfully.”

[19:37]  ⁵ sn See 2:13, 20; Acts 2:47; 3:8-9.

[19:37]  ⁶ tn Or “works of power,” “miracles.” Jesus’ ministry of miracles is what has drawn attention. See Luke 7:22.

[19:37]  ⁷ tn Grk “they had seen, saying.” The participle λέγοντες (legontes) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[21:37]  ⁸ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” since vv. 37-38 serve as something of a summary or transition from the discourse preceding to the passion narrative that follows.

[21:37]  ⁹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[21:37]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “in the temple.”

[21:37]  ¹¹ tn Grk “and spent the night,” but this is redundant because of the previous use of the word “night.”

[21:37]  ¹² tn Grk “at the mountain called ‘of Olives.’”
