Footnotes

  1. 12 Grk “and saying, ‘Lord.’ ” The participle λέγων (legōn) at the beginning of v. 6 is redundant in English and has not been translated.
  2. 13 The Greek term here is παῖς (pais), often used of a slave who was regarded with some degree of affection, possibly a personal servant (Luke 7:7 uses the more common term δοῦλος, doulos). See L&N 87.77.
