Luke 10:3

Context
10:3 Go! I 1  am sending you out like lambs 2  surrounded by wolves. 3 

1 tn Grk “Behold I.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).

2 sn On the imagery of lambs see Isa 40:11, Ezek 34:11-31, and John 10:1-18.

3 sn This imagery of wolves is found in intertestamental Judaism as well; see Pss. Sol. 8:23.
