Lukas 20:46

20:46 “Beware ¹²  of the experts in the law. ¹³  They ¹⁴  like walking around in long robes, and they love elaborate greetings ¹⁵  in the marketplaces and the best seats ¹⁶  in the synagogues ¹⁷  and the places of honor at banquets.

[8:47]  ¹ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[8:47]  ² tn Or “could not remain unnoticed” (see L&N 28.83).

[8:47]  ³ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. The order of the clauses in the remainder of the verse has been rearranged to reflect contemporary English style.

[8:47]  ⁴ tn Grk “told for what reason.”

[12:33]  ⁵ sn The call to sell your possessions is a call to a lack of attachment to the earth and a generosity as a result.

[12:33]  ⁶ tn Grk “give alms,” but this term is not in common use today.

[12:33]  ⁷ tn Grk “in the heavens.”

[12:33]  ⁸ tn Or “an unfailing treasure in heaven,” or “an inexhaustible treasure in heaven.”

[12:33]  ⁹ tn The term σής (shs) refers to moths in general. It is specifically the larvae of moths that destroy clothing by eating holes in it (L&N 4.49; BDAG 922 s.v.). See Jas 5:2, which mentions “moth-eaten” clothing.

[12:58]  ¹⁰ sn The term magistrate (ἄρχων, arcwn) refers to an official who, under the authority of the government, serves as judge in legal cases (see L&N 56.29).

[12:58]  ¹¹ sn The officer (πράκτωρ, praktwr) was a civil official who functioned like a bailiff and was in charge of debtor’s prison. The use of the term, however, does not automatically demand a Hellenistic setting (BDAG 859 s.v.; K. H. Rengstorf, TDNT 8:539; C. Maurer, TDNT 6:642).

[20:46]  ¹² tn Or “Be on guard against.” This is a present imperative and indicates that pride is something to constantly be on the watch against.

[20:46]  ¹³ tn Or “of the scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 5:21.

[20:46]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “who,” continuing the sentence begun by the prior phrase.

[20:46]  ¹⁵ sn There is later Jewish material in the Talmud that spells out such greetings in detail. See D. L. Bock, Luke (BECNT), 2:1642; H. Windisch, TDNT 1:498.

[20:46]  ¹⁶ sn See Luke 14:1-14.

[20:46]  ¹⁷ sn See the note on synagogues in 4:15.
