Luke 22:71

Context
22:71 Then 1  they said, “Why do we need further testimony? We have heard it ourselves 2  from his own lips!” 3 

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

2 sn We have heard it ourselves. The Sanhedrin regarded the answer as convicting Jesus. They saw it as blasphemous to claim such intimacy and shared authority with God, a claim so serious and convicting that no further testimony was needed.

3 tn Grk “from his own mouth” (an idiom).
