Luke 20:45

Jesus Warns the Disciples against Pride

20:45 As ¹  all the people were listening, Jesus ²  said to his disciples,

Luke 19:39

19:39 But ³  some of the Pharisees ⁴  in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” ⁵ 

Luke 9:16

9:16 Then ⁶  he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven he gave thanks ⁷  and broke them. He gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd.

[20:45]  ¹ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[20:45]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[19:39]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context. Not all present are willing to join in the acclamation.

[19:39]  ⁴ sn See the note on Pharisees in 5:17.

[19:39]  ⁵ sn Teacher, rebuke your disciples. The Pharisees were complaining that the claims were too great.

[9:16]  ⁵ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[9:16]  ⁶ sn Gave thanks adds a note of gratitude to the setting. The scene is like two other later meals: Luke 22:19 and 24:30. Jesus gives thanks to God “with respect to” the provision of food. The disciples learn how Jesus is the mediator of blessing. John 6 speaks of him in this scene as picturing the “Bread of Life.”
