Lukas 9:59

9:59 Jesus ¹  said to another, “Follow me.” But he replied, ²  “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”

Lukas 20:2

20:2 and said to him, ³  “Tell us: By what authority ⁴  are you doing these things? ⁵  Or who it is who gave you this authority?”

[9:59]  ¹ tn Grk “And he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[9:59]  ² tn Grk “said.”

[20:2]  ³ tn Grk “and said, saying to him.” This is redundant in English and has been simplified in the translation.

[20:2]  ⁴ tn On this phrase, see BDAG 844 s.v. ποῖος 2.a.γ.

[20:2]  ⁵ sn The leadership is looking back to acts like the temple cleansing (19:45-48). How could a Galilean preacher do these things?
