Footnotes

  1. Luke 21:15 tn Grk “a mouth.” It is a metonymy and refers to the reply the Lord will give to them.
  2. Luke 21:15 tn Grk “and wisdom.”
  3. Luke 21:16 sn To confess Christ might well mean rejection by one’s own family, even by parents.
  4. Luke 21:16 tn Grk “and brothers and relatives,” but καί (kai) has not been translated twice here since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.
  5. Luke 21:17 sn See Luke 6:22, 27; 1 Cor 1:25-31.
