Lukas 7:48

7:48 Then ¹  Jesus ²  said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” ³ 

Lukas 7:50

7:50 He ⁴  said to the woman, “Your faith ⁵  has saved you; ⁶  go in peace.”

[7:48]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[7:48]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:48]  ³ sn Jesus showed his authority to forgive sins, something that was quite controversial. See Luke 5:17-26 and the next verse.

[7:50]  ⁴ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[7:50]  ⁵ sn On faith see Luke 5:20; 7:9; 8:25; 12:28; 17:6; 18:8; 22:32.

[7:50]  ⁶ sn The questioning did not stop Jesus. He declared authoritatively that the woman was forgiven by God (your faith has saved you). This event is a concrete example of Luke 5:31-32.
