Lukas 22:31-32
Konteks22:31 “Simon, 1 Simon, pay attention! 2 Satan has demanded to have you all, 3 to sift you like wheat, 4 22:32 but I have prayed for you, Simon, 5 that your faith may not fail. 6 When 7 you have turned back, 8 strengthen 9 your brothers.”
Lukas 23:46
Konteks23:46 Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” 10 And after he said this he breathed his last.
[22:31] 1 tc The majority of
[22:31] 2 tn Grk “behold” (for “pay attention” see L&N 91.13).
[22:31] 3 sn This pronoun is plural in the Greek text, so it refers to all the disciples of which Peter is the representative.
[22:31] 4 sn Satan has demanded permission to put them to the test. The idiom “sift (someone) like wheat” is similar to the English idiom “to pick (someone) apart.” The pronoun you is implied.
[22:32] 5 sn Here and in the remainder of the verse the second person pronouns are singular, so only Peter is in view. The name “Simon” has been supplied as a form of direct address to make this clear in English.
[22:32] 6 sn That your faith may not fail. Note that Peter’s denials are pictured here as lapses, not as a total absence of faith.
[22:32] 7 tn Grk “And when.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
[22:32] 8 tn Or “turned around.”
[22:32] 9 sn Strengthen your brothers refers to Peter helping to strengthen their faith. Jesus quite graciously restores Peter “in advance,” even with the knowledge of his approaching denials.
[23:46] 10 sn A quotation from Ps 31:5. It is a psalm of trust. The righteous, innocent sufferer trusts in God. Luke does not have the cry of pain from Ps 22:1 (cf. Matt 27:46; Mark 15:34), but notes Jesus’ trust instead.
