Lukas 1:22

1:22 When ¹  he came out, he was not able to speak to them. They ²  realized that he had seen a vision ³  in the holy place, ⁴  because ⁵  he was making signs to them and remained unable to speak. ⁶ 

Lukas 8:14

8:14 As for the seed that ⁷  fell among thorns, these are the ones who hear, but ⁸  as they go on their way they are choked ⁹  by the worries and riches and pleasures of life, ¹⁰  and their fruit does not mature. ¹¹ 

Lukas 10:34

10:34 He ¹²  went up to him ¹³  and bandaged his wounds, pouring oil ¹⁴  and wine on them. Then ¹⁵  he put him on ¹⁶  his own animal, ¹⁷  brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

Lukas 23:14

23:14 and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was misleading ¹⁸  the people. When I examined him before you, I ¹⁹  did not find this man guilty ²⁰  of anything you accused him of doing.

[1:22]  ¹ tn Grk “And when.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[1:22]  ² tn Grk “and they.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[1:22]  ³ tn That is, “he had had a supernatural encounter in the holy place,” since the angel came to Zechariah by the altar. This was not just a “mental experience.”

[1:22]  ⁴ tn Or “temple.” See the note on the phrase “the holy place” in v. 9.

[1:22]  ⁵ tn Grk “and,” but the force is causal or explanatory in context.

[1:22]  ⁶ tn Grk “dumb,” but this could be understood to mean “stupid” in contemporary English, whereas the point is that he was speechless.

[8:14]  ⁷ tn Grk “What”; the referent (the seed) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[8:14]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[8:14]  ⁹ sn That is, their concern for spiritual things is crowded out by material things.

[8:14]  ¹⁰ sn On warnings about the dangers of excessive material attachments, described here as the worries and riches and pleasures of life, see Luke 12:12-21; 16:19-31.

[8:14]  ¹¹ tn The verb τελεσφορέω (telesforew) means “to produce mature or ripe fruit” (L&N 23.203). Once again the seed does not reach its goal.

[10:34]  ¹² tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. Instead, because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[10:34]  ¹³ tn The words “to him” are not in the Greek text but are implied. The participle προσελθών (proselqwn) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[10:34]  ¹⁴ sn The ancient practice of pouring oil was designed to comfort and clean the wounds (Isa 1:6).

[10:34]  ¹⁵ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative. Because of the length and complexity of this Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[10:34]  ¹⁶ tn It is not clear whether the causative nuance of the verb included actual assistance or not (“helped him on” versus “had him get on”; see L&N 15.98), but in light of the severity of the man’s condition as described in the preceding verses, some degree of assistance was almost certainly needed.

[10:34]  ¹⁷ sn His own animal refers to a riding animal, presumably a donkey, but not specified.

[23:14]  ¹⁸ tn This term also appears in v. 2.

[23:14]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “behold, I” A transitional use of ἰδού (idou) has not been translated here.

[23:14]  ²⁰ tn Grk “nothing did I find in this man by way of cause.” The reference to “nothing” is emphatic.
