Discovery BoxMatthew 10:18-19 
Context10:18 And you will be brought before governors and kings 1 because of me, as a witness to them and the Gentiles. 10:19 Whenever 2 they hand you over for trial, do not worry about how to speak or what to say, 3 for what you should say will be given to you at that time. 4
1 sn These statements look at persecution both from a Jewish context as the mention of courts and synagogues suggests, and from a Gentile one as the reference to governors and kings suggests. Some fulfillment of Jewish persecution can be seen in Acts.
2 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
3 tn Grk “how or what you might speak.”
4 tn Grk “in that hour.”
