Lukas 13:22

The Narrow Door

13:22 Then ¹  Jesus ²  traveled throughout ³  towns ⁴  and villages, teaching and making his way toward ⁵  Jerusalem. ⁶ 

Lukas 17:11

The Grateful Leper

17:11 Now on ⁷  the way to Jerusalem, ⁸  Jesus ⁹  was passing along ¹⁰  between Samaria and Galilee.

[13:22]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[13:22]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:22]  ³ tn This is a distributive use of κατά (kata); see L&N 83:12.

[13:22]  ⁴ tn Or “cities.”

[13:22]  ⁵ tn Grk “making his journey toward.” This is the first of several travel notes in Luke’s Jerusalem journey section of Luke 9-19; other notes appear at 17:11; 18:31; 19:28, 41.

[17:11]  ⁷ tn Grk “Now it happened that on.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”), common in Luke (69 times) and Acts (54 times), is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[17:11]  ⁸ sn This is another travel note about Jesus going to Jerusalem in Luke 9:51-19:48, the so-called “Jerusalem journey” section of Luke’s Gospel. It is not a straight line journey, because to travel along the Galilean and Samaritan border is to go east or west, not south to Jerusalem.
