Footnotes

  1. 95 The syntax of this verse is disputed, resulting in various translations. The major options are either (1) that reflected in the translation or (2) that those who have a money bag and traveler’s bag should get a sword, just as those who do not have these items should sell their cloak to buy a sword. The point of all the options is that things have changed and one now needs full provisions. Opposition will come. But “sword” is a figure for preparing to fight. See Luke 22:50–51.
  2. 96 Or possibly “beggar’s bag” (L&N 6.145).
  3. 97 This scripture must be fulfilled in me. The statement again reflects the divine necessity of God’s plan. See 4:43–44.
  4. 98 Or “with the lawless.” This is a quotation from Isa 53:12. It highlights a theme of Luke 22–23. Though completely innocent, Jesus dies as if he were a criminal.
  5. 99 Grk “is having its fulfillment.”
