Luke 14:13

Context
14:13 But when you host an elaborate meal, 1  invite the poor, the crippled, 2  the lame, and 3  the blind. 4 

1 tn This term, δοχή (doch), is a third term for a meal (see v. 12) that could also be translated “banquet, feast.”

2 sn Normally the term means crippled as a result of being maimed or mutilated (L&N 23.177).

3 tn Here “and” has been supplied between the last two elements in the series in keeping with English style.

4 sn This list of needy is like Luke 7:22. See Deut 14:28-29; 16:11-14; 26:11-13.
