20:47They108 devour109 widows’ property,110 and as a show make long prayers. They will receive a more severe punishment.”
Footnotes
- 108 Grk “who,” continuing the sentence begun in v. 46.
- 109 How they were able to devour widows’ houses is debated. Did they seek too much for contributions, or take too high a commission for their work, or take homes after debts failed to be paid? There is too little said here to be sure.
- 110 Grk “houses,” “households”; however, the term can have the force of “property” or “possessions” as well (O. Michel, 5:131; οἶκια 1.a).
