Luke 15:15

Context
15:15 So he went and worked for 1  one of the citizens of that country, who 2  sent him to his fields to feed pigs. 3 

1 tn Grk “joined himself to” (in this case an idiom for beginning to work for someone).

2 tn Grk “and he.” Here the conjunction καί (kai) and the personal pronoun have been translated by a relative pronoun to improve the English style.

3 sn To a Jew, being sent to the field to feed pigs would be an insult, since pigs were considered unclean animals (Lev 11:7).
