Lukas 8:25
Konteks8:25 Then 1 he said to them, “Where is your faith?” 2 But they were afraid and amazed, 3 saying to one another, “Who then is this? He commands even the winds and the water, 4 and they obey him!”
Lukas 20:28
Konteks20:28 They asked him, 5 “Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies leaving a wife but no children, that man 6 must marry 7 the widow and father children 8 for his brother. 9

[8:25] 1 tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
[8:25] 2 sn “Where is your faith?” The call is to trust God and realize that those who exercise faith can trust in his care.
[8:25] 3 sn The combination of fear and respect (afraid and amazed) shows that the disciples are becoming impressed with the great power at work in Jesus, a realization that fuels their question. For a similar reaction, see Luke 5:9.
[8:25] 4 sn Jesus’ authority over creation raised a question for the disciples about who he was exactly (“Who then is this?”). This verse shows that the disciples followed Jesus even though they did not know all about him yet.
[20:28] 5 tn Grk “asked him, saying.” The participle λέγοντες (legontes) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.
[20:28] 6 tn Grk “his brother”; but this would be redundant in English with the same phrase “his brother” at the end of the verse, so most modern translations render this phrase “the man” (so NIV, NRSV).
[20:28] 7 tn The use of ἵνα (Jina) with imperatival force is unusual (BDF §470.1).
[20:28] 8 tn Grk “and raise up seed,” an idiom for procreating children (L&N 23.59).
[20:28] 9 sn A quotation from Deut 25:5. Because the OT quotation does not include “a wife” as the object of the verb, it has been left as normal type. This practice is called levirate marriage (see also Ruth 4:1-12; Mishnah, m. Yevamot; Josephus, Ant. 4.8.23 [4.254-256]). The levirate law is described in Deut 25:5-10. The brother of a man who died without a son had an obligation to marry his brother’s widow. This served several purposes: It provided for the widow in a society where a widow with no children to care for her would be reduced to begging, and it preserved the name of the deceased, who would be regarded as the legal father of the first son produced from that marriage.
[22:19] 10 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
[22:19] 11 tc Some important Western
[22:19] 12 sn The language of the phrase given for you alludes to Christ’s death in our place. It is a powerful substitutionary image of what he did for us.
