Lukas 1:21

1:21 Now ¹  the people were waiting for Zechariah, and they began to wonder ²  why he was delayed in the holy place. ³ 

Lukas 10:33

10:33 But ⁴  a Samaritan ⁵  who was traveling ⁶  came to where the injured man ⁷  was, and when he saw him, he felt compassion for him. ⁸ 

Lukas 24:9

24:9 and when they returned from the tomb they told all these things to the eleven ⁹  and to all the rest.

[1:21]  ¹ tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

[1:21]  ² tn The imperfect verb ἐθαύμαζον (eqaumazon) has been translated as an ingressive imperfect.

[1:21]  ³ tn Or “temple.” See the note on the phrase “the holy place” in v. 9.

[10:33]  ⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context between the previous characters (considered by society to be examples of piety and religious duty) and a hated Samaritan.

[10:33]  ⁵ tn This is at the beginning of the clause, in emphatic position in the Greek text.

[10:33]  ⁶ tn The participle ὁδεύων (Jodeuwn) has been translated as an adjectival participle (cf. NAB, NASB, TEV); it could also be taken temporally (“while he was traveling,” cf. NRSV, NIV).

[10:33]  ⁷ tn Grk “he”; the referent (the injured man) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:33]  ⁸ tn “Him” is not in the Greek text but is implied. The verb means “to feel compassion for,” and the object of the compassion is understood.

[10:33]  sn Here is what made the Samaritan different: He felt compassion for him. In the story, compassion becomes the concrete expression of love. The next verse details explicitly six acts of compassion.

[24:9]  ⁹ sn Judas is now absent and “the twelve” have now become “the eleven.” Other disciples are also gathered with the remaining eleven.
