1 tn Here αὐτός (autos) has been translated reflexively.
2 tn Grk “was withdrawing” (ἦν ὑποχωρῶν, hn jJupocwrwn). The adverb “frequently” has been added in the translation to bring out what is most likely an iterative force to the imperfect. However, the imperfect might instead portray an ingressive idea: “he began to withdraw.” See ExSyn 542-43.
3 tn Or “desert.”
4 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
5 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
6 sn Jesus showed his authority to forgive sins, something that was quite controversial. See Luke 5:17-26 and the next verse.
7 tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
8 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
9 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated. “They” could refer to bystanders or people in the crowd.
10 tn Grk “And entering, he passed through”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

12 tn Grk “hastening, he came down.” σπεύσας (speusas) has been translated as a participle of manner.
13 tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
14 tn The participle χαίρων (cairwn) has been taken as indicating manner.
sn Zacchaeus responded joyfully. Luke likes to mention joy as a response to what God was doing (1:14; 2:10; 10:20; 13:17; 15:5, 32; 19:37; 24:41, 52).
15 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
16 tn Or “craftiness.” The term always has negative connotations in the NT (1 Cor 3:19; 2 Cor 4:2; 11:3; Eph 4:14).
