Footnotes

  1. 61 The passive verb ἐβέβλητο (ebeblēto) does not indicate how Lazarus got there. Cf. βάλλω 1.b, “he lay before the door”; Josephus, 9.10.2 (9.209).
  2. 62 This is the one time in all the gospels that a figure in a parable is mentioned by name. It will become important later in the account.
  3. 63 Or “was covered with ulcers.” The words “whose body” are implied in the context (L&N 23.180).
