Luke 3:19

3:19 But when John rebuked Herod ¹  the tetrarch ²  because of Herodias, his brother’s wife, ³  and because of all the evil deeds ⁴  that he had done,

Luke 19:14

19:14 But his citizens ⁵  hated ⁶  him and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We do not want this man ⁷  to be king ⁸  over us!’

[3:19]  ¹ sn Herod refers here to Herod Antipas. See the note on Herod Antipas in 3:1.

[3:19]  ² sn See the note on tetrarch in 3:1.

[3:19]  ³ tc Several mss (A C K W Ψ 33 565 579 1424 2542 al bo) read τῆς γυναικὸς Φιλίππου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ (th" gunaiko" Filippou tou adelfou autou, “the wife of his brother Philip”), specifying whose wife Herodias was. The addition of “Philip,” however, is an assimilation to Matt 14:3 and is lacking in the better witnesses.

[3:19]  ⁴ tn Or “immoralities.”

[19:14]  ⁵ tn Or “subjects.” Technically these people were not his subjects yet, but would be upon his return. They were citizens of his country who opposed his appointment as their king; later the newly-appointed king will refer to them as his “enemies” (v. 27).

[19:14]  ⁶ tn The imperfect is intense in this context, suggesting an ongoing attitude.

[19:14]  ⁷ tn Grk “this one” (somewhat derogatory in this context).

[19:14]  ⁸ tn Or “to rule.”
