10:5 Jesus sent out these twelve, instructing them as follows: 1 “Do not go to Gentile regions 2 and do not enter any Samaritan town. 3 10:6 Go 4 instead to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
1 tn Grk “instructing them, saying.”
2 tn Grk “on the road of the Gentiles.” That is, a path that leads to Gentile regions.
3 tn Grk “town [or city] of the Samaritans.”
4 tn Grk “But go.” The Greek μᾶλλον (mallon, “rather, instead”) conveys the adversative nuance here so that δέ (de) has not been translated.
