2:19Jesus40 said to them, “The wedding guests41 cannot fast while the bridegroom42 is with them, can they?43 As long as they have the bridegroom with them they do not fast.
Footnotes
- 40 Grk “And Jesus.”
- 41 Grk “sons of the wedding hall,” an idiom referring to wedding guests, or more specifically, friends of the bridegroom present at the wedding celebration (L&N 11.7).
- 42 The expression while the bridegroom is with them is an allusion to messianic times (John 3:29; Isa 54:5–6; 62:4–5; 4 Ezra 2:15, 38).
- 43 Questions prefaced with μή (mē) in Greek anticipate a negative answer. This can sometimes be indicated by using a “tag” at the end in English (here the tag is “can they?”).
