Luke 9:42

Context
9:42 As 1  the boy 2  was approaching, the demon threw him to the ground 3  and shook him with convulsions. 4  But Jesus rebuked 5  the unclean 6  spirit, healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

1 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

2 tn Grk “he”; the referent (the boy) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 sn At this point the boy was thrown down in another convulsion by the demon. See L&N 23.168.

4 tn See L&N 23.167-68, where the second verb συσπαράσσω (susparassw) is taken to mean the violent shaking associated with the convulsions, thus the translation here “and shook him with convulsions.”

5 tn Or “commanded” (often with the implication of a threat, L&N 33.331).

6 sn This is a reference to an evil spirit. See Luke 4:33.
