Luke 13:4

Context
13:4 Or those eighteen who were killed 1  when the tower in Siloam fell on them, 2  do you think they were worse offenders than all the others who live in Jerusalem? 3 

1 tn Grk “on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them.” This relative clause embedded in a prepositional phrase is complex in English and has been simplified to an adjectival and a temporal clause in the translation.

2 sn Unlike the previous event, when the tower in Siloam fell on them, it was an accident of fate. It raised the question, however, “Was this a judgment?”
