Luke 7:7

7:7 That is why ¹  I did not presume ²  to come to you. Instead, say the word, and my servant must be healed. ³ 

Luke 7:45

7:45 You gave me no kiss of greeting, ⁴  but from the time I entered she has not stopped kissing my feet.

Luke 11:23

11:23 Whoever is not with me is against me, ⁵  and whoever does not gather with me scatters. ⁶ 

Luke 13:26

13:26 Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’ ⁷ 

Luke 20:3

20:3 He answered them, ⁸  “I will also ask you a question, and you tell me:

Luke 20:8

20:8 Then ⁹  Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you ¹⁰  by whose authority ¹¹  I do these things.”

Luke 23:41

23:41 And we rightly so, for we are getting what we deserve for what we did, but this man has done nothing ¹²  wrong.”

[7:7]  ¹ tn Or “roof; therefore.”

[7:7]  ² tn Grk “I did not consider myself worthy to come to you.” See BDAG 94 s.v. ἀξιόω 1. “Presume” assumes this and expresses the idea in terms of offense.

[7:7]  ³ tc The aorist imperative ἰαθήτω (iaqhtw, “must be healed”) is found in Ì^75vid B L 1241 sa. Most mss (א A C D W Θ Ψ Ë^1,13 33 Ï latt bo) have instead a future indicative, ἰαθήσεται (iaqhsetai, “will be healed”). This is most likely an assimilation to Matt 8:8, and thus, as a motivated reading, should be considered secondary. The meaning either way is essentially the same.

[7:45]  ⁴ tn Grk “no kiss.” This refers to a formalized kiss of greeting, standard in that culture. To convey this to the modern reader, the words “of greeting” have been supplied to qualify what kind of kiss is meant.

[11:23]  ⁷ sn Whoever is not with me is against me. The call here is to join the victor. Failure to do so means that one is being destructive. Responding to Jesus is the issue.

[11:23]  ⁸ sn For the image of scattering, see Pss. Sol. 17:18.

[13:26]  ¹⁰ sn This term refers to wide streets, and thus suggests the major streets of a city.

[20:3]  ¹³ tn Grk “answering, he said to them.” This is redundant in English and has been simplified in the translation.

[20:8]  ¹⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[20:8]  ¹⁷ sn Neither will I tell you. Though Jesus gave no answer, the analogy he used to their own question makes his view clear. His authority came from heaven.

[20:8]  ¹⁸ tn On this phrase, see BDAG 844 s.v. ποῖος 2.a.γ. This is exactly the same phrase as in v. 2.

[23:41]  ¹⁹ sn This man has done nothing wrong is yet another declaration that Jesus was innocent of any crime.
