Footnotes

  1. Luke 10:38 Literally “by name”
  2. Luke 10:38 Most manuscripts add some form of the location such as “into her house” but there is considerable variation in the exact wording, so the shorter reading is preferred
  3. Luke 10:39 Literally “this was”
  4. Luke 10:39 Some manuscripts have “of the Lord”
  5. Luke 10:39 Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“sat”) has been translated as a finite verb
