Imamat 19:34
Konteks19:34 The foreigner who resides with you must be to you like a native citizen among you; so 1 you must love him as yourself, because you were foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.
Matius 5:43
Konteks5:43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor’ 2 and ‘hate your enemy.’
Matius 19:16
Konteks19:16 Now 3 someone came up to him and said, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to gain eternal life?”
Matius 19:22
Konteks19:22 But when the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he was very rich. 4
Matius 1:1-25
Konteks1:1 This is the record of the genealogy 5 of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
1:2 Abraham was the father 6 of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 1:3 Judah the father of Perez and Zerah (by Tamar), Perez the father of Hezron, Hezron the father of Ram, 1:4 Ram the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, 1:5 Salmon the father of Boaz (by Rahab), Boaz the father of Obed (by Ruth), Obed the father of Jesse, 1:6 and Jesse the father of David the king.
David was the father of Solomon (by the wife of Uriah 7 ), 1:7 Solomon the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, Abijah the father of Asa, 8 1:8 Asa the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, Joram the father of Uzziah, 1:9 Uzziah the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, 1:10 Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, 9 Amon the father of Josiah, 1:11 and Josiah 10 the father of Jeconiah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.
1:12 After 11 the deportation to Babylon, Jeconiah became the father of Shealtiel, 12 Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, 1:13 Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, Abiud the father of Eliakim, Eliakim the father of Azor, 1:14 Azor the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Achim, Achim the father of Eliud, 1:15 Eliud the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob, 1:16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, by whom 13 Jesus was born, who is called Christ. 14
1:17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to Christ, 15 fourteen generations.
1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ happened this way. While his mother Mary was engaged to Joseph, but before they came together, 16 she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. 1:19 Because Joseph, her husband to be, 17 was a righteous man, and because he did not want to disgrace her, he intended to divorce her 18 privately. 1:20 When he had contemplated this, an 19 angel of the Lord 20 appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 1:21 She will give birth to a son and you will name him 21 Jesus, 22 because he will save his people from their sins.” 1:22 This all happened so that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet would be fulfilled: 1:23 “Look! The virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call him 23 Emmanuel,” 24 which means 25 “God with us.” 26 1:24 When Joseph awoke from sleep he did what the angel of the Lord 27 told him. He took his wife, 1:25 but did not have marital relations 28 with her until she gave birth to a son, whom he named 29 Jesus.
Markus 12:31
Konteks12:31 The second is: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 30 There is no other commandment greater than these.”
Lukas 10:27
Konteks10:27 The expert 31 answered, “Love 32 the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, 33 and love your neighbor as yourself.” 34
Yohanes 13:34
Konteks13:34 “I give you a new commandment – to love 35 one another. Just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. 36
Roma 13:9
Konteks13:9 For the commandments, 37 “Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not covet,” 38 (and if there is any other commandment) are summed up in this, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” 39
Galatia 5:14
Konteks5:14 For the whole law can be summed up in a single commandment, 40 namely, “You must love your neighbor as yourself.” 41
Yakobus 2:8
Konteks2:8 But if you fulfill the royal law as expressed in this scripture, 42 “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” 43 you are doing well.
[19:34] 1 tn Heb “and.” The Hebrew conjunction ו (vav, “and”) can be considered to have resultative force here.
[5:43] 2 sn A quotation from Lev 19:18.
[19:16] 3 tn Grk “And behold one came.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1). Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.
[19:22] 4 tn Grk “he had many possessions.” This term (κτῆμα, kthma) is often used for land as a possession.
[1:1] 5 tn Grk “the book of the genealogy.” The noun βίβλος (biblo"), though it is without the article, is to be translated as definite due to Apollonius’ corollary and the normal use of anarthrous nouns in titles.
[1:6] 7 sn By the wife of Uriah, i.e., Bathsheba (cf. 2 Sam 11:3).
[1:7] 8 tc The reading ᾿Ασάφ (Asaf), a variant spelling on ᾿Ασά (Asa), is found in the earliest and most widespread witnesses (Ì1vid א B C [Dluc] Ë1,13 700 pc it co). Although Asaph was a psalmist and Asa was a king, it is doubtful that the author mistook one for the other since other ancient documents have variant spellings on the king’s name (such as “Asab,” “Asanos,” and “Asaph”). Thus the spelling ᾿Ασάφ that is almost surely found in the original of Matt 1:7-8 has been translated as “Asa” in keeping with the more common spelling of the king’s name.
[1:10] 9 tc ᾿Αμώς (Amws) is the reading found in the earliest and best witnesses (א B C [Dluc] γ δ θ Ë1 33 pc it sa bo), and as such is most likely original, but this is a variant spelling of the name ᾿Αμών (Amwn). The translation uses the more well-known spelling “Amon” found in the Hebrew MT and the majority of LXX
[1:11] 10 sn Before the mention of Jeconiah, several medieval
[1:12] 11 tn Because of the difference between Greek style, which usually begins a sentence with a conjunction, and English style, which generally does not, the conjunction δέ (de) has not been translated here.
[1:12] 12 sn The Greek text and the KJV read Salathiel. Most modern English translations use the OT form of the name (cf. Ezra 3:2).
[1:16] 13 tc There are three significant variant readings at this point in the text. Some
[1:16] sn The pronoun whom is feminine gender in the Greek text, referring to Mary.
[1:16] 14 tn Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”
[1:16] sn The term χριστός (cristos) was originally an adjective (“anointed”), developing in LXX into a substantive (“an anointed one”), then developing still further into a technical generic term (“the anointed one”). In the intertestamental period it developed further into a technical term referring to the hoped-for anointed one, that is, a specific individual. In the NT the development starts there (technical-specific), is so used in the gospels, and then develops in Paul to mean virtually Jesus’ last name.
[1:17] 15 tn Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”
[1:17] sn See the note on Christ in 1:16.
[1:18] 16 tn The connotation of the Greek is “before they came together in marital and domestic union” (so BDAG 970 s.v. συνέρχομαι 3).
[1:19] 17 tn Grk “husband.” See following note for discussion.
[1:19] 18 tn Or “send her away.”
[1:19] sn In the Jewish context, “full betrothal was so binding that its breaking required a certificate of divorce, and the death of one party made the other a widow or widower (m. Ketub. 1:2; m. Sota 1:5; m. Git. passim…)” (R. H. Gundry, Matthew: A Commentary on his Literary and Theological Art, 21).
[1:20] 19 tn Grk “behold, an angel.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).
[1:20] 20 tn Or “the angel of the Lord.” Linguistically, “angel of the Lord” is the same in both testaments (and thus, he is either “an angel of the Lord” or “the angel of the Lord” in both testaments). For arguments and implications, see ExSyn 252; M. J. Davidson, “Angels,” DJG, 9; W. G. MacDonald argues for “an angel” in both testaments: “Christology and ‘The Angel of the Lord’,” Current Issues in Biblical and Patristic Interpretation, 324-35.
[1:21] 21 tn Grk “you will call his name.”
[1:21] 22 sn The Greek form of the name Ihsous, which was translated into Latin as Jesus, is the same as the Hebrew Yeshua (Joshua), which means “Yahweh saves” (Yahweh is typically rendered as “Lord” in the OT). It was a fairly common name among Jews in 1st century Palestine, as references to a number of people by this name in the LXX and Josephus indicate.
[1:23] 23 tn Grk “they will call his name.”
[1:23] 24 sn A quotation from Isa 7:14.
[1:23] 25 tn Grk “is translated.”
[1:23] 26 sn An allusion to Isa 8:8, 10 (LXX).
[1:24] 27 tn See the note on the word “Lord” in 1:20. Here the translation “the angel of the Lord” is used because the Greek article (ὁ, Jo) which precedes ἄγγελος (angelos) is taken as an anaphoric article (ExSyn 217-19) referring back to the angel mentioned in v. 20.
[1:25] 28 tn Or “did not have sexual relations”; Grk “was not knowing her.” The verb “know” (in both Hebrew and Greek) is a frequent biblical euphemism for sexual relations. However, a translation like “did not have sexual relations with her” is too graphic in light of the popularity and wide use of Matthew’s infancy narrative. Thus the somewhat more subdued but still clear “did not have marital relations” was selected.
[1:25] 29 tn Grk “and he called his name Jesus.” The coordinate clause has been translated as a relative clause in English for stylistic reasons.
[12:31] 30 sn A quotation from Lev 19:18.
[10:27] 31 tn Grk “And he”; the referent (the expert in religious law, shortened here to “the expert”) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
[10:27] 32 tn Grk “You will love.” The future indicative is used here with imperatival force (see ExSyn 452 and 569).
[10:27] 33 sn A quotation from Deut 6:5. The fourfold reference to different parts of the person says, in effect, that one should love God with all one’s being.
[10:27] 34 tn This portion of the reply is a quotation from Lev 19:18. The verb is repeated in the translation for stylistic reasons.
[13:34] 35 tn The ἵνα (Jina) clause gives the content of the commandment. This is indicated by a dash in the translation.
[13:34] 36 sn The idea that love is a commandment is interesting. In the OT the ten commandments have a setting in the covenant between God and Israel at Sinai; they were the stipulations that Israel had to observe if the nation were to be God’s chosen people. In speaking of love as the new commandment for those whom Jesus had chosen as his own (John 13:1, 15:16) and as a mark by which they could be distinguished from others (13:35), John shows that he is thinking of this scene in covenant terminology. But note that the disciples are to love “Just as I have loved you” (13:34). The love Jesus has for his followers cannot be duplicated by them in one sense, because it effects their salvation, since he lays down his life for them: It is an act of love that gives life to people. But in another sense, they can follow his example (recall to the end, 13:1; also 1 John 3:16, 4:16 and the interpretation of Jesus’ washing of the disciples’ feet). In this way Jesus’ disciples are to love one another: They are to follow his example of sacrificial service to one another, to death if necessary.
[13:9] 37 tn Grk “For the…” (with the word “commandments” supplied for clarity). The Greek article (“the”) is used here as a substantiver to introduce the commands that are quoted from the second half of the Decalogue (ExSyn 238).
[13:9] 38 sn A quotation from Exod 20:13-15, 17; Deut 5:17-19, 21.
[13:9] 39 sn A quotation from Lev 19:18.
[5:14] 40 tn Or “can be fulfilled in one commandment.”
[5:14] 41 sn A quotation from Lev 19:18.
[2:8] 42 tn Grk “according to the scripture.”
[2:8] 43 sn A quotation from Lev 19:18 (also quoted in Matt 19:19; 22:39; Mark 12:31; Luke 10:27; Rom 13:9; Gal 5:14).
