Matius 2:13
Konteks2:13 After they had gone, an 1 angel of the Lord 2 appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Get up, take the child and his mother and flee to Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, for Herod 3 is going to look for the child to kill him.”
Matius 2:16
Konteks2:16 When Herod 4 saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, he became enraged. He sent men 5 to kill all the children in Bethlehem 6 and throughout the surrounding region from the age of two and under, according to the time he had learned from the wise men.
Matius 14:19
Konteks14:19 Then 7 he instructed the crowds to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves and two fish, and looking up to heaven he gave thanks and broke the loaves. He gave them to the disciples, 8 who in turn gave them to the crowds. 9
[2:13] 1 tn Grk “behold, an angel.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).
[2:13] 2 tn Or “the angel of the Lord.” See the note on the word “Lord” in 1:20.
[2:13] 3 sn See the note on King Herod in 2:1. Herod the Great was particularly ruthless regarding the succession to his throne.
[2:16] 4 sn See the note on King Herod in 2:1. Note the fulfillment of the prophecy given by the angel in 2:13.
[2:16] 6 map For location see Map5 B1; Map7 E2; Map8 E2; Map10 B4.
[14:19] 7 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “Then.”
[14:19] 8 tn Grk “And after instructing the crowds to recline for a meal on the grass, after taking the five loaves and the two fish, after looking up to heaven, he gave thanks, and after breaking the loaves he gave them to the disciples.” Although most of the participles are undoubtedly attendant circumstance, there are but two indicative verbs – “he gave thanks” and “he gave.” The structure of the sentence thus seems to focus on these two actions and has been translated accordingly.
[14:19] 9 tn Grk “to the disciples, and the disciples to the crowds.”
