Luke 19:9

Context
19:9 Then 1  Jesus said to him, “Today salvation 2  has come to this household, 3  because he too is a son of Abraham! 4 

1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative

2 sn This is one of the few uses of the specific term salvation in Luke (1:69, 71, 77), though the concept runs throughout the Gospel.

3 sn The household is not a reference to the building, but to the people who lived within it (L&N 10.8).

4 sn Zacchaeus was personally affirmed by Jesus as a descendant (son) of Abraham and a member of God’s family.
