Luke 21:18

Context
21:18 Yet 1  not a hair of your head will perish. 2 

Luke 13:3

Context
13:3 No, I tell you! But unless you repent, 3  you will all perish as well! 4 

Luke 13:5

Context
13:5 No, I tell you! But unless you repent 5  you will all perish as well!” 6 

1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “yet” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

2 sn Given v. 16, the expression not a hair of your head will perish must be taken figuratively and refer to living ultimately in the presence of God.

3 sn Jesus was stressing that all stand at risk of death, if they do not repent and receive life.

4 tn Or “you will all likewise perish,” but this could be misunderstood to mean that they would perish by the same means as the Galileans. Jesus’ point is that apart from repentance all will perish.

5 sn Jesus’ point repeats v. 3. The circumstances make no difference. All must deal with the reality of what death means.

6 tn Grk “similarly.”
