Luke 9:57

¹ tn Grk “And as.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

² tn Grk “going,” but “walking” is an accurate description of how they traveled about.

³ tc Most mss (A C W Θ Ψ Ë¹³ 33 Ï) add κύριε (kurie, “Lord”) here, but scribes were prone to add to the text, especially appellations for the Lord. The shorter reading also enjoys significant ms support (Ì^45,75 א B D L Ξ Ë¹ lat co).

sn The statement “I will follow you wherever you go” is an offer to follow Jesus as a disciple, no matter what the cost.
