Luke 12:47

Context
12:47 That 1  servant who knew his master’s will but did not get ready or do what his master asked 2  will receive a severe beating.

Luke 23:48

Context
23:48 And all the crowds that had assembled for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts. 3 

1 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

2 tn Grk “or do according to his will”; the referent (the master) has been specified in the translation for clarity. This example deals with the slave who knew what the command was and yet failed to complete it.

3 sn Some apparently regretted what had taken place. Beating their breasts was a sign of lamentation.
