Footnotes

  1. 25 Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.
  2. 26 Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  3. 27 Jesus instructs the man to declare what the Lord has done for him, in contrast to the usual instructions (e.g., 1:44; 5:43) to remain silent. Here in Gentile territory Jesus allowed more open discussion of his ministry. D. L. Bock (Luke [], 1:) suggests that with few Jewish religious representatives present, there would be less danger of misunderstanding Jesus’ ministry as political.
