Lukas 9:61

9:61 Yet ¹  another said, “I will follow you, Lord, but first let me say goodbye to my family.” ² 

Lukas 16:29

16:29 But Abraham said, ³  ‘They have Moses and the prophets; they must respond to ⁴  them.’

[9:61]  ¹ tn Grk “And another also said.”

[9:61]  ² tn Grk “to those in my house.”

[16:29]  ³ tn Grk “says.” This is one of the few times Luke uses the historical present.

[16:29]  ⁴ tn Or “obey”; Grk “hear.” This recalls the many OT texts calling for a righteous heart to respond to people in need (Deut 14:28-29; Isa 3:14-15; Amos 2:6-8; Mic 2:1-2; Zech 7:9-10).
