Lukas 1:70

1:70 as he spoke through the mouth of his holy prophets from long ago, ¹ 

Lukas 18:1

Prayer and the Parable of the Persistent Widow

18:1 Then ²  Jesus ³  told them a parable to show them they should always ⁴  pray and not lose heart. ⁵ 

Lukas 18:9

The Parable of the Pharisee and Tax Collector

18:9 Jesus ⁶  also told this parable to some who were confident that they were righteous and looked down ⁷  on everyone else.

Lukas 21:29

The Parable of the Fig Tree

21:29 Then ⁸  he told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the other trees. ⁹ 

Lukas 24:7

24:7 that ¹⁰  the Son of Man must be delivered ¹¹  into the hands of sinful men, ¹²  and be crucified, ¹³  and on the third day rise again.” ¹⁴ 

[1:70]  ¹ tn Grk “from the ages,” “from eternity.”

[18:1]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[18:1]  ³ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[18:1]  ⁴ tn Or “should pray at all times” (L&N 67.88).

[18:1]  ⁵ sn This is one of the few parables that comes with an explanation at the start: …they should always pray and not lose heart. It is part of Luke’s goal in encouraging Theophilus (1:4).

[18:9]  ⁶ tn Grk “He”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[18:9]  ⁷ tn Grk “and despised.” This is a second parable with an explanatory introduction.

[21:29]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[21:29]  ⁹ tn Grk “all the trees.”

[24:7]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “saying that,” but this would be redundant in English. Although the translation represents this sentence as indirect discourse, the Greek could equally be taken as direct discourse: “Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee: ‘the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’”

[24:7]  ¹¹ tn See Luke 9:22, 44; 13:33.

[24:7]  ¹² tn Because in the historical context the individuals who were primarily responsible for the death of Jesus (the Jewish leadership in Jerusalem in Luke’s view [see Luke 9:22]) would have been men, the translation “sinful men” for ἀνθρώπων ἁμαρτωλῶν (anqrwpwn Jamartwlwn) is retained here.

[24:7]  ¹³ sn See the note on crucify in 23:21.

[24:7]  ¹⁴ tn Here the infinitive ἀναστῆναι (anasthnai) is active rather than passive.
