Lukas 8:24

8:24 They ¹  came ²  and woke him, saying, “Master, Master, ³  we are about to die!” So ⁴  he got up and rebuked ⁵  the wind and the raging waves; ⁶  they died down, and it was calm.

Lukas 6:48

6:48 He is like a man ⁷  building a house, who dug down deep, ⁸  and laid the foundation on bedrock. When ⁹  a flood came, the river ¹⁰  burst against that house but ¹¹  could not shake it, because it had been well built. ¹² 

[8:24]  ¹ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[8:24]  ² tn The participle προσελθόντες (proselqonte") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[8:24]  ³ tn The double vocative shows great emotion.

[8:24]  ⁴ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the connection to the preceding events.

[8:24]  ⁵ tn Or “commanded” (often with the implication of a threat, L&N 33.331).

[8:24]  ⁶ sn Who has authority over the seas and winds is discussed in the OT: Ps 104:3; 135:7; 107:23-30. When Jesus rebuked the wind and the raging waves he was making a statement about who he was.

[6:48]  ⁷ tn Here and in v. 49 the Greek text reads ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo"), while the parallel account in Matt 7:24-27 uses ἀνήρ (anhr) in vv. 24 and 26.

[6:48]  ⁸ tn There are actually two different Greek verbs used here: “who dug (ἔσκαψεν, eskayen) and dug deep (ἐβάθυνεν, ebaqunen).” Jesus is placing emphasis on the effort to which the man went to prepare his foundation.

[6:48]  ⁹ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[6:48]  ¹⁰ sn The picture here is of a river overflowing its banks and causing flooding and chaos.

[6:48]  ¹¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in the context.

[6:48]  ¹² tc Most mss, especially later ones (A C D Θ Ψ Ë^1,13 Ï latt), read “because he built [it] on the rock” rather than “because it had been well built” (Ì^75vid א B L W Ξ 33 579 892 1241 2542 pc sa). The reading of the later mss seems to be a harmonization to Matt 7:25, rendering it most likely secondary.
