Luke 13:9

Context
13:9 Then if 1  it bears fruit next year, 2  very well, 3  but if 4  not, you can cut it down.’”

1 tn This is a third class condition in the Greek text. The conjunction καί (kai, a component of κάν [kan]) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

2 tn Grk “the coming [season].”

3 tn The phrase “very well” is supplied in the translation to complete the elided idea, but its absence is telling.

4 tn This is a first class condition in the Greek text, showing which of the options is assumed.
