Lukas 11:42

11:42 “But woe to you Pharisees! ⁵  You give a tenth ⁶  of your mint, ⁷  rue, ⁸  and every herb, yet you neglect justice ⁹  and love for God! But you should have done these things without neglecting the others. ¹⁰ 

Lukas 13:16

13:16 Then ¹¹  shouldn’t ¹²  this woman, a daughter of Abraham whom Satan ¹³  bound for eighteen long ¹⁴  years, be released from this imprisonment ¹⁵  on the Sabbath day?”

Lukas 24:44

Jesus’ Final Commission

24:44 Then ²³  he said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me ²⁴  in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms ²⁵  must be fulfilled.”

[9:22]  ¹ sn The necessity that the Son of Man suffer is the particular point that needed emphasis, since for many 1st century Jews the Messiah was a glorious and powerful figure, not a suffering one.

[9:22]  ² sn Rejection in Luke is especially by the Jewish leadership (here elders, chief priests, and experts in the law), though in Luke 23 almost all will join in.

[9:22]  ³ tn Or “and scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 5:21.

[9:22]  ⁴ sn The description of the Son of Man being rejected…killed, and…raised is the first of six passion summaries in Luke: 9:44; 17:25; 18:31-33; 24:7; 24:46-47.

[11:42]  ⁵ tn Grk “Woe to you…because you…” The causal particle ὅτι (Joti) has not been translated here for rhetorical effect (and so to the end of this chapter).

[11:42]  ⁶ tn Or “you tithe mint.”

[11:42]  ⁷ sn These small herbs were tithed with great care (Mishnah, m. Demai 2:1).

[11:42]  ⁸ tn Grk “and rue.” Καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

[11:42]  sn Rue was an evergreen herb used for seasoning.

[11:42]  ⁹ sn Justice was a major theme of OT ethics (Mic 6:8; Zech 7:8-10).

[11:42]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “those”; but this has been translated as “the others” to clarify which are meant.

[13:16]  ¹¹ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “then” to show the connection with Jesus’ previous statement.

[13:16]  ¹² tn Grk “is it not necessary that.” Jesus argues that no other day is more appropriate to heal a descendant of Abraham than the Sabbath, the exact opposite view of the synagogue leader.

[13:16]  ¹³ sn Note that this is again a battle between Satan and God; see 11:18-23.

[13:16]  ¹⁴ tn The word “long” reflects the emphasis added in the Greek text by ἰδού (idou). See BDAG 468 s.v. 1.

[13:16]  ¹⁵ tn Or “bondage”; Grk “bond.”

[19:5]  ¹⁶ tc Most mss (A [D] W [Ψ] ˹³ 33^vid Ï latt) read “Jesus looking up, saw him and said.” The words “saw him and” are not in א B L T Θ Ë¹ 579 1241 2542 pc co. Both the testimony for the omission and the natural tendency toward scribal expansion argue for the shorter reading here.

[19:5]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “hastening, come down.” σπεύσας (speusa") has been translated as a participle of manner.

[19:5]  ¹⁸ sn I must stay. Jesus revealed the necessity of his associating with people like Zacchaeus (5:31-32). This act of fellowship indicated acceptance.

[19:5]  ¹⁹ sn On today here and in v. 9, see the note on today in 2:11.

[22:37]  ²⁰ sn This scripture must be fulfilled in me. The statement again reflects the divine necessity of God’s plan. See 4:43-44.

[22:37]  ²¹ tn Or “with the lawless.”

[22:37]  sn This is a quotation from Isa 53:12. It highlights a theme of Luke 22-23. Though completely innocent, Jesus dies as if he were a criminal.

[22:37]  ²² tn Grk “is having its fulfillment.”

[24:44]  ²³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[24:44]  ²⁴ sn Everything written about me. The divine plan, events, and scripture itself are seen here as being one.

[24:44]  ²⁵ sn For a similar threefold division of the OT scriptures, see the prologue to Sirach, lines 8-10, and from Qumran, the epilogue to 4QMMT, line 10.
