Lukas 10:10

10:10 But whenever ¹  you enter a town ²  and the people ³  do not welcome ⁴  you, go into its streets ⁵  and say,

Lukas 17:16

17:16 He ⁶  fell with his face to the ground ⁷  at Jesus’ feet and thanked him. ⁸  (Now ⁹  he was a Samaritan.) ¹⁰ 

Lukas 22:50

22:50 Then ¹¹  one of them ¹²  struck the high priest’s slave, ¹³  cutting off his right ear.

[10:10]  ¹ tn Grk “whatever town you enter,” but this is more often expressed in English as “whenever you enter a town.”

[10:10]  ² tn Or “city.”

[10:10]  ³ tn Grk “and they”; the referent (the people who live in the town) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:10]  ⁴ sn More discussion takes place concerning rejection (the people do not welcome you), as these verses lead into the condemnation of certain towns for their rejection of God’s kingdom.

[10:10]  ⁵ tn The term πλατεῖα (plateia) refers to the “broad street,” so this refers to the main roads of the town.

[17:16]  ⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[17:16]  ⁷ tn Grk “he fell on his face” (an idiom for complete prostration).

[17:16]  ⁸ sn And thanked him. This action recognized God’s healing work through Jesus.

[17:16]  ⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the introduction of a parenthetical comment.

[17:16]  ¹⁰ sn This is a parenthetical note by the author. The comment that the man was a Samaritan means that to most Jews of Jesus’ day he would have been despised as a half-breed and a heretic. The note adds a touch of irony to the account (v. 18).

[22:50]  ¹¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[22:50]  ¹² sn One of them. The unnamed disciple is Peter according to John 18:10 (cf. also Matt 26:51; Mark 14:47).

[22:50]  ¹³ tn See the note on the word “slave” in 7:2.
