Lukas 4:13

4:13 So ¹  when the devil ²  had completed every temptation, he departed from him until a more opportune time. ³ 

Lukas 9:29

9:29 As ⁴  he was praying, ⁵  the appearance of his face was transformed, ⁶  and his clothes became very bright, a brilliant white. ⁷ 

Lukas 19:33

19:33 As ⁸  they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, ⁹  “Why are you untying that colt?”

Lukas 23:10

23:10 The chief priests and the experts in the law ¹⁰  were there, vehemently accusing him. ¹¹ 

Lukas 24:17

24:17 Then ¹²  he said to them, “What are these matters ¹³  you are discussing so intently ¹⁴  as you walk along?” And they stood still, looking sad.

[4:13]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate a summary.

[4:13]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (the devil) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[4:13]  ³ tn Grk “until a favorable time.”

[4:13]  sn Until a more opportune time. Though some have argued that the devil disappears until Luke 22:3, this is unlikely since the cosmic battle with Satan and all the evil angels is consistently mentioned throughout Luke (8:26-39; 11:14-23).

[9:29]  ⁴ tn Grk “And as.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:29]  ⁵ tn Here the preposition ἐν (en) plus the dative articular aorist infinitive has been translated as a temporal clause (ExSyn 595).

[9:29]  ⁶ tn Or “the appearance of his face became different.”

[9:29]  sn In 1st century Judaism and in the NT, there was the belief that the righteous get new, glorified bodies in order to enter heaven (1 Cor 15:42-49; 2 Cor 5:1-10). This transformation means the righteous will share the glory of God. One recalls the way Moses shared the Lord’s glory after his visit to the mountain in Exod 34. So the disciples saw the appearance of his face transformed, and they were getting a sneak preview of the great glory that Jesus would have (only his glory is more inherent to him as one who shares in the rule of the kingdom).

[9:29]  ⁷ tn Or “became bright as a flash of lightning” (cf. BDAG 346 s.v. ἐξαστράπτω); or “became brilliant as light” (cf. BDAG 593 s.v. λευκός 1).

[19:33]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[19:33]  ⁹ tn Grk “said to them.”

[23:10]  ¹⁰ tn Or “and the scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 5:21.

[23:10]  ¹¹ sn Luke portrays the Jewish leadership as driving events toward the cross by vehemently accusing Jesus.

[24:17]  ¹² tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[24:17]  ¹³ tn Grk “words,” but the term λόγος (logos) can refer to “matters” rather than only “words” (BDAG 600 s.v. 1.a.ε).

[24:17]  ¹⁴ tn “Discussing so intently” translates the reciprocal idea conveyed by πρὸς ἀλλήλους (pro" allhlou"). The term ἀντιβάλλω (antiballw), used only here in the NT, has the nuance of “arguing” or “debating” a point (the English idiom “to exchange words” also comes close).
