Footnotes
- 35 Grk “And the.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
- 36 Grk “the”; in context the article is used as a possessive pronoun ( ).
- 37 L&N 57.19 notes that in nonbiblical contexts in which the word οὐσία (ousia) occurs, it refers to considerable possessions or wealth, thus “estate.”
- 38 L&N 57.3, “to belong to or come to belong to, with the possible implication of by right or by inheritance.”
- 39 Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the father’s response to the younger son’s request.
- 40 Grk “the”; in context the article is used as a possessive pronoun ( ).
- 41 He divided his assets between them. There was advice against doing this in the OT Apocrypha (Sir 33:20). The younger son would get half of what the older son received (Deut 21:17).
