Discovery BoxLuke 7:6 
Context7:6 So 1 Jesus went with them. When 2 he was not far from the house, the centurion 3 sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself, 4 for I am not worthy 5 to have you come under my roof.
Luke 11:1
Context11:1 Now 6 Jesus 7 was praying in a certain place. When 8 he stopped, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John 9 taught 10 his disciples.”
1 tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the resultative action.
2 tn The participle ἀπέχοντος (apeconto") has been taken temporally.
3 sn See the note on the word centurion in 7:2.
4 tn Or “do not be bothered.”
5 sn Note the humility in the centurion’s statement I am not worthy in light of what others think (as v. 4 notes). See Luke 5:8 for a similar example of humility.
6 tn Grk “And it happened that while.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”), common in Luke (69 times) and Acts (54 times), is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated. Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.
7 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
8 tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
9 sn John refers to John the Baptist.
10 sn It was not unusual for Jewish groups to have their own prayer as a way of expressing corporate identity. Judaism had the Eighteen Benedictions and apparently John the Baptist had a prayer for his disciples as well.
