Footnotes
- 37 Grk “standing”; the Greek participle has been translated as a finite verb.
- 38 Grk “even lift up his eyes” (an idiom).
- 39 The prayer is a humble call for forgiveness. The term for mercy (ἱλάσκομαι, hilaskomai) is associated with the concept of a request for atonement ( 1; Ps 51:1, 3; 25:11; 34:6, 18).
- 40 Grk “the sinner.” The tax collector views himself not just as any sinner but as the worst of all sinners. See .
