Footnotes

  1. 8 Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
  2. 9 Grk “He”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  3. 10 The phrase unclean spirits refers to evil spirits.
  4. 11 Neither Matt 10:9–10 nor Luke 9:3 allow for a staff. It might be that Matthew and Luke mean not taking an extra staff, or that the expression is merely rhetorical for “traveling light,” which has been rendered in two slightly different ways.
  5. 12 Or “no traveler’s bag”; or possibly “no beggar’s bag” (L&N 6.145; πήρα).
