Lukas 6:33

6:33 And ¹  if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even ²  sinners ³  do the same.

Lukas 23:30

23:30 Then they will begin to say to the mountains, ⁴  ‘Fall on us!’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us!’ ⁵ 

[6:33]  ¹ tc ‡ Three key mss (Ì⁷⁵ א* B) have “for” here, but it is unlikely that it was present originally. The addition of conjunctions, especially to the beginning of a clause, are typically suspect because they fit the pattern of Koine tendencies toward greater explicitness. NA²⁷ has the word in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity.

[6:33]  ² tc Most mss (A D L Θ Ξ Ψ Ë¹³ 33 Ï lat) include γάρ (gar, “for”) following καί (kai, here translated “even”), but a few important mss (א B W 700 892* 1241 pc) lack the conjunction. The inclusion of the conjunction seems to be motivated by clarity and should probably be considered inauthentic.

[6:33]  ³ sn See the note on the word sinners in v. 32.

[23:30]  ⁴ sn The figure of crying out to the mountains ‘Fall on us!’ (appealing to creation itself to hide them from God’s wrath), means that a time will come when people will feel they are better off dead (Hos 10:8).

[23:30]  ⁵ sn An allusion to Hos 10:8 (cf. Rev 6:16).
