Footnotes

1. Luke 2:40 tc Most mss (A Θ Ψ ƒ^1,13 33 M) read πνεύματι (pneumati, “in spirit”) after “became strong,” but this looks like an assimilation to Luke 1:80. The better witnesses (א B D L N W lat co) lack the word.
2. Luke 2:40 sn With the description grew and became strong, filled with wisdom Luke emphasizes the humanity of Jesus and his growth toward maturity.
3. Luke 2:40 tn Or “grace.”
4. Luke 2:40 sn On the phrase the favor of God see Luke 1:66.
