Luke 7:6

7:6 So ¹  Jesus went with them. When ²  he was not far from the house, the centurion ³  sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself, ⁴  for I am not worthy ⁵  to have you come under my roof.

[7:6]  ¹ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the resultative action.

[7:6]  ² tn The participle ἀπέχοντος (apeconto") has been taken temporally.

[7:6]  ³ sn See the note on the word centurion in 7:2.

[7:6]  ⁴ tn Or “do not be bothered.”

[7:6]  ⁵ sn Note the humility in the centurion’s statement I am not worthy in light of what others think (as v. 4 notes). See Luke 5:8 for a similar example of humility.
