Luke 11:32

11:32 The people ¹  of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented when Jonah preached to them ²  – and now, ³  something greater than Jonah is here!

Luke 11:51

11:51 from the blood of Abel ⁴  to the blood of Zechariah, ⁵  who was killed ⁶  between the altar and the sanctuary. ⁷  Yes, I tell you, it will be charged against ⁸  this generation.

¹ tn See the note on the word “people” in v. 31.

² tn Grk “at the preaching of Jonah.”

sn The phrase repented when Jonah preached to them confirms that in this context the sign of Jonah (v. 30) is his message.

³ tn Grk “behold.”

⁴ sn Gen 4:10 indicates that Abel’s blood cried out for justice.

⁵ sn It is not clear which Zechariah is meant here. It is probably the person mentioned in 2 Chr 24:20-25.

⁶ tn Or “who perished.”

⁷ tn Or “and the temple”; Grk “and the house,” but in this context a reference to the house of God as a place of sanctuary.

⁸ tn Or “required from.”
