Luke 7:12

7:12 As he approached the town gate, a man ¹  who had died was being carried out, ²  the only son of his mother (who ³  was a widow ⁴ ), and a large crowd from the town ⁵  was with her.

Luke 13:17

13:17 When ⁶  he said this all his adversaries were humiliated, ⁷  but ⁸  the entire crowd was rejoicing at all the wonderful things ⁹  he was doing. ¹⁰ 

[7:12]  ¹ tn Grk “behold.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).

[7:12]  ² tn That is, carried out for burial. This was a funeral procession.

[7:12]  ³ tn Grk “and she.” The clause introduced by καί (kai) has been translated as a relative clause for the sake of English style.

[7:12]  ⁴ sn The description of the woman as a widow would mean that she was now socially alone and without protection in 1st century Jewish culture.

[7:12]  ⁵ tn Or “city.”

[13:17]  ⁶ tn Grk “And when.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[13:17]  ⁷ tn Or “were put to shame.”

[13:17]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[13:17]  ⁹ sn Concerning all the wonderful things see Luke 7:16; 19:37.

[13:17]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “that were being done by him.” The passive has been converted to an active construction in the translation.
