Word Pictures in the NT [Luke: Chapter 10]. application of the metaphor of the dishes on the table. Salvation is not "the good portion" for Martha had that also. {From her} (\aut•s\). Ablative case after \aphair•th•setai\ (future passive indicative). Jesus pointedly takes Mary's side against Martha's fussiness.

Word Pictures in the NT [Luke: Chapter 11]. [Table of Contents] [Previous] [Next] 11:1 {As he was praying in a certain place} (\en t•i einai auton en top•i tini proseuchomenon\). Characteristically Lukan idiom: \en\ with articular periphrastic infinitive (\einai proseuchomenon\) with accusative of general reference (\auton\). {That}. Not in the Greek, asyndeton (\kai egeneto eipen\). {When he ceased} (\h•s epausato\). Supply \proseuchomenos\ (praying), complementary or supplementary participle. {Teach us} (\didaxon h•mas\). Jesus had taught them by precept (Mt 6:7-15) and example (Lu 9:29). Somehow the example of Jesus on this occasion stirred them to fresh interest in the subject and to revival of interest in John's teachings (Lu 5:33). So Jesus gave them the substance of the Model Prayer in Matthew, but in shorter form. Some of the MSS. have one or all of the phrases in Matthew, but the oldest documents have it in the simplest form. See on ¯Mt 6:7-15 for discussion of these details (Father, hallowed, kingdom, daily bread, forgiveness, bringing us into temptation). In Mt 6:11 "give" is \dos\ (second aorist active imperative second singular, a single act) while here Lu 11:3 "give" is \didou\ (present active imperative, both from \did•mi\) and means, "keep on giving." So in Lu 11:4 we have "For we ourselves also forgive" (\kai gar autoi aphiomen\), present active indicative of the late \•\ verb \aphi•\ while Mt 6:12 has "as we also forgave" (\h•s kai h•meis aph•kamen\), first aorist (\k\ aorist) active of \aphi•mi\. So also where Mt 6:12 has "debts" (\ta opheil•mata\) Lu 11:4 has "sins" (\tas hamartias\). But the spirit of each prayer is the same. There is no evidence that Jesus meant either form to be a ritual. In both Mt 6:13; Lu 11:4 \m• eisenegk•is\ occurs (second aorist subjunctive with \m•\ in prohibition, ingressive aorist). "Bring us not" is a better translation than "lead us not." There is no such thing as God enticing one to sin (Jas 1:13). Jesus urges us to pray not to be tempted as in Lu 22:40 in Gethsemane. 11:5 {At midnight} (\mesonuktiou\). Genitive of time. {And say to him} (\kai eip•i aut•i\). This is the deliberative subjunctive, but it is preceded by two future indicatives that are deliberative also (\hexei, poreusetai\). {Lend me} (\chr•son moi\). First aorist active imperative second singular.
