Lukas 1:22

1:22 When ¹  he came out, he was not able to speak to them. They ²  realized that he had seen a vision ³  in the holy place, ⁴  because ⁵  he was making signs to them and remained unable to speak. ⁶ 

Lukas 22:51

22:51 But Jesus said, ⁷  “Enough of this!” And he touched the man’s ⁸  ear and healed ⁹  him.

[1:22]  ¹ tn Grk “And when.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[1:22]  ² tn Grk “and they.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[1:22]  ³ tn That is, “he had had a supernatural encounter in the holy place,” since the angel came to Zechariah by the altar. This was not just a “mental experience.”

[1:22]  ⁴ tn Or “temple.” See the note on the phrase “the holy place” in v. 9.

[1:22]  ⁵ tn Grk “and,” but the force is causal or explanatory in context.

[1:22]  ⁶ tn Grk “dumb,” but this could be understood to mean “stupid” in contemporary English, whereas the point is that he was speechless.

[22:51]  ⁷ tn Grk “But answering, Jesus said.” This is redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified in the translation.

[22:51]  ⁸ tn Grk “his”; the referent (the slave of the high priest mentioned in the previous verse) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:51]  ⁹ sn When Jesus healed the man’s ear he showed grace even to those who hated him, following his own teaching (Luke 6:27-36).
