Matthew 13:17

13:17 For I tell you the truth, ²  many prophets and righteous people longed to see ³  what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.

Matthew 21:9

21:9 The crowds that went ahead of him and those following kept shouting, ⁴  “Hosanna ⁵  to the Son of David! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! ⁶  Hosanna in the highest!”

Matthew 21:12

Cleansing the Temple

21:12 Then ⁷  Jesus entered the temple area ⁸  and drove out all those who were selling and buying in the temple courts, ⁹  and turned over the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those selling doves.

[10:41]  ¹ tn Grk “And whoever.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[13:17]  ² tn Grk “truly (ἀμήν, amhn) I say to you.”

[13:17]  ³ sn This is what past prophets and righteous people had wanted very much to see, yet the fulfillment had come to the disciples. This remark is like 1 Pet 1:10-12 or Heb 1:1-2.

[21:9]  ³ tn Grk “were shouting, saying.” The participle λέγοντας (legontas) is redundant here in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[21:9]  ⁴ tn The expression ῾Ωσαννά (Jwsanna, literally in Hebrew, “O Lord, save”) in the quotation from Ps 118:25-26 was probably by this time a familiar liturgical expression of praise, on the order of “Hail to the king,” although both the underlying Aramaic and Hebrew expressions meant “O Lord, save us.” In words familiar to every Jew, the author is indicating that at this point every messianic expectation is now at the point of realization. It is clear from the words of the psalm shouted by the crowd that Jesus is being proclaimed as messianic king. See E. Lohse, TDNT 9:682-84.

[21:9]  ⁵ sn A quotation from Ps 118:25-26.

[21:12]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[21:12]  ⁵ tn Grk “the temple.”

[21:12]  ⁶ tn Grk “the temple.”
