Luke 8:49-51
New English Translation

49 While he was still speaking, someone from the synagogue leader’s[a] house came and said, “Your daughter is dead; do not trouble the teacher any longer.” 50 But when Jesus heard this, he told[b] him, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”[c] 51 Now when he came to the house, Jesus[d] did not let anyone go in with him except Peter, John,[e] and James, and the child’s father and mother.

Footnotes

  1. Luke 8:49 tn That is, “the official in charge of the synagogue”; ἀρχισυνάγωγος (archisunagōgos) refers to the “president of a synagogue” (so BDAG 139 s.v. and L&N 53.93). In this case the referent is Jairus (v. 41).
  2. Luke 8:50 tn Grk “answered.”
  3. Luke 8:50 tn Or “will be delivered”; Grk “will be saved.” This should not be understood as an expression for full salvation in the immediate context; it refers only to the girl’s healing.
  4. Luke 8:51 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  5. Luke 8:51 tn Grk “and John,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.
