Luke 6:47

6:47 “Everyone who comes to me and listens to my words and puts them into practice ¹  – I will show you what he is like:

Luke 10:16

10:16 “The one who listens ²  to you listens to me, ³  and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects ⁴  the one who sent me.” ⁵ 

[6:47]  ¹ tn Grk “and does them.”

[10:16]  ² tn Grk “hears you”; but as the context of vv. 8-9 makes clear, it is response that is the point. In contemporary English, “listen to” is one way to express this function (L&N 31.56).

[10:16]  ³ sn Jesus linked himself to the disciples’ message: Responding to the disciples (listens to you) counts as responding to him.

[10:16]  ⁴ tn The double mention of rejection in this clause – ἀθετῶν ἀθετεῖ (aqetwn aqetei) in the Greek text – keeps up the emphasis of the section.

[10:16]  ⁵ sn The one who sent me refers to God.
