Footnotes

  1. Luke 23:31 Or, green tree. That is, Jesus.
  2. Luke 23:31 That is, unbelieving Israel. If the Innocent One is made to die, what will happen to guilty Israel? The answer came in a.d. 70 when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem.
  3. Luke 23:32 That is, others of a different kind. Luke may be stating it this way in fulfillment of 22:37. Or, this may be punctuated to avoid classing Jesus as a criminal, ‘And others were also being led, two criminals, to be executed with Him’.
  4. Luke 23:33 That is, Golgotha. See Mt 27:33.
