Luke 9:1

[8:43]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

[8:43]  ² tn Grk “a flow of blood.”

[8:43]  ³ tc ‡ Most mss, including the majority of later mss (א[* C] A L W Θ Ξ [Ψ] Ë^1,13 33 [1424] Ï [lat sy^c,p,h]) read here, “having spent all her money on doctors.” Uncertainty over its authenticity is due primarily to the fact that certain important witnesses do not have the phrase (e.g., Ì⁷⁵ B [D] 0279 sy^s sa Or). This evidence alone renders its authenticity unlikely. It may have been intentionally added by later scribes in order to harmonize Luke’s account with similar material in Mark 5:26 (see TCGNT 121). NA²⁷ includes the words in brackets, indicating doubt as to their authenticity.

[9:1]  ⁴ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[9:1]  ⁵ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:1]  ⁶ tn An aorist participle preceding an aorist main verb may indicate either contemporaneous (simultaneous) action (“When he called… he gave”) or antecedent (prior) action (“After he called… he gave”). The participle συγκαλεσάμενος (sunkalesameno") has been translated here as indicating antecedent action.

[9:1]  ⁷ tc Some mss add ἀποστόλους (apostolou", “apostles”; א C* L Θ Ψ 070 0291 ˹³ 33 579 892 1241 1424 2542 pc lat) or μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ (maqhta" autou, “his disciples”; C³ al it) here, but such clarifying notes are clearly secondary.

[9:1]  ⁸ sn Note how Luke distinguishes between exorcisms (authority over all demons) and diseases here.

[9:17]  ⁷ sn There was more than enough for everybody, as indicated by the gathering of what was left over.

[22:3]  ¹⁰ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[22:3]  ¹¹ sn The cross is portrayed as part of the cosmic battle between Satan and God; see Luke 4:1-13; 11:14-23.

[22:3]  ¹² tn Grk “Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.”
