Lukas 15:22

15:22 But the father said to his slaves, ¹  ‘Hurry! Bring the best robe, ²  and put it on him! Put a ring on his finger ³  and sandals ⁴  on his feet!

Lukas 19:30

19:30 telling them, ⁵  “Go to the village ahead of you. ⁶  When ⁷  you enter it, you will find a colt tied there that has never been ridden. ⁸  Untie it and bring it here.

[15:22]  ¹ tn See the note on the word “slave” in 7:2.

[15:22]  ² sn With the instructions Hurry! Bring the best robe, there is a total acceptance of the younger son back into the home.

[15:22]  ³ tn Grk “hand”; but χείρ (ceir) can refer to either the whole hand or any relevant part of it (L&N 8.30).

[15:22]  ⁴ sn The need for sandals underlines the younger son’s previous destitution, because he was barefoot.

[19:30]  ⁵ tn Grk “saying.”

[19:30]  ⁶ tn Grk “the village lying before [you]” (BDAG 530 s.v. κατέναντι 2.a).

[19:30]  ⁷ tn Grk “in which entering.” This is a continuation of the previous sentence in Greek, but because of the length and complexity of the construction a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[19:30]  ⁸ tn Grk “a colt tied there on which no one of men has ever sat.”
