Lukas 3:19

3:19 But when John rebuked Herod ¹  the tetrarch ²  because of Herodias, his brother’s wife, ³  and because of all the evil deeds ⁴  that he had done,

Lukas 19:9

19:9 Then ⁵  Jesus said to him, “Today salvation ⁶  has come to this household, ⁷  because he too is a son of Abraham! ⁸ 

[3:19]  ¹ sn Herod refers here to Herod Antipas. See the note on Herod Antipas in 3:1.

[3:19]  ² sn See the note on tetrarch in 3:1.

[3:19]  ³ tc Several mss (A C K W Ψ 33 565 579 1424 2542 al bo) read τῆς γυναικὸς Φιλίππου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ (th" gunaiko" Filippou tou adelfou autou, “the wife of his brother Philip”), specifying whose wife Herodias was. The addition of “Philip,” however, is an assimilation to Matt 14:3 and is lacking in the better witnesses.

[3:19]  sn This marriage to his brother’s wife was a violation of OT law (Lev 18:16; 20:21). In addition, both Herod Antipas and Herodias had each left previous marriages to enter into this union.

[3:19]  ⁴ tn Or “immoralities.”

[19:9]  ⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative

[19:9]  ⁶ sn This is one of the few uses of the specific term salvation in Luke (1:69, 71, 77), though the concept runs throughout the Gospel.

[19:9]  ⁷ sn The household is not a reference to the building, but to the people who lived within it (L&N 10.8).

[19:9]  ⁸ sn Zacchaeus was personally affirmed by Jesus as a descendant (son) of Abraham and a member of God’s family.
