Luke 19:7

19:7 And when the people ¹  saw it, they all complained, ²  “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” ³ 

Luke 21:6

21:6 “As for these things that you are gazing at, the days will come when not one stone will be left on another. ⁴  All will be torn down!” ⁵ 

Luke 9:12

9:12 Now the day began to draw to a close, ⁶  so ⁷  the twelve came and said to Jesus, ⁸  “Send the crowd away, so they can go into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging ⁹  and food, because we are in an isolated place.” ¹⁰ 

[19:7]  ¹ tn Grk “they”; the referent is unspecified but is probably the crowd in general, who would have no great love for a man like Zacchaeus who had enriched himself many times over at their expense.

[19:7]  ² tn This term is used only twice in the NT, both times in Luke (here and 15:2) and has negative connotations both times (BDAG 227 s.v. διαγογγύζω). The participle λέγοντες (legonte") is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[19:7]  ³ sn Being the guest of a man who is a sinner was a common complaint about Jesus: Luke 5:31-32; 7:37-50; 15:1-2.

[21:6]  ⁴ sn With the statement days will come when not one stone will be left on another Jesus predicted the total destruction of the temple, something that did occur in a.d. 70.

[21:6]  ⁵ tn Grk “the days will come when not one stone will be left on another that will not be thrown down.”

[9:12]  ⁷ tn Grk “the day began to decline,” looking to the approach of sunset.

[9:12]  ⁸ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate that the disciples’ request was related to the approach of sunset.

[9:12]  ⁹ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:12]  ¹⁰ tn That is, find someone to show them hospitality. L&N 34.61 has “find lodging,” using this verse as an example.

[9:12]  ¹¹ tn Or “in a desert” (meaning a deserted or desolate area with sparse vegetation). Here ὧδε (Jwde) has not been translated.
