- Luke 10:20 tn Grk “do not rejoice in this, that.” This is awkward in contemporary English and has been simplified to “do not rejoice that.”
- Luke 10:20 tn The verb here is a present imperative, so the call is to an attitude of rejoicing.
- Luke 10:20 tn The verb here, a perfect tense, stresses a present reality of that which was a completed action, that is, their names were etched in the heavenly stone, as it were.
