NETBible

Fear¹ seized them all, and they began to glorify² God, saying, “A great prophet³ has appeared⁴ among us!” and “God has come to help⁵ his people!”

NET Notes

¹tn Or “Awe.” Grk “fear,” but the context and the following remark show that it is mixed with wonder; see L&N 53.59. This is a reaction to God’s work; see Luke 5:9.

²tn This imperfect verb has been translated as an ingressive imperfect.

³sn That Jesus was a great prophet was a natural conclusion for the crowd to make, given the healing; but Jesus is more than this. See Luke 9:8, 19-20.

⁴tn Grk “arisen.”

⁵tn Grk “visited,” but this conveys a different impression to a modern reader. L&N 85.11 renders the verb, “to be present, with the implication of concern – ‘to be present to help, to be on hand to aid.’ … ‘God has come to help his people’ Lk 7:16.” The language recalls Luke 1:68, 78.
