Matthew 15:32

Context
The Feeding of the Four Thousand

15:32 Then Jesus called the 1  disciples and said, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have already been here with me three days and they have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry since they may faint on the way.”

Matthew 17:27

Context
17:27 But so that we don’t offend them, go to the lake and throw out a hook. Take the first fish that comes up, and when you open its mouth, you will find a four drachma coin. 2  Take that and give it to them for me and you.”

Matthew 19:28

Context
19:28 Jesus 3  said to them, “I tell you the truth: 4  In the age when all things are renewed, 5  when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging 6  the twelve tribes of Israel.

1 tc ‡ Although the external evidence is not great (א W Θ 700 pc), the internal evidence for the omission of αὐτοῦ (autou, “his”) after “disciples” is fairly strong. The pronoun may have been added by way of clarification. NA27, however, includes the pronoun, on the basis of the much stronger external evidence.

2 sn The four drachma coin was a stater (στατήρ, stathr), a silver coin worth four drachmas. One drachma was equivalent to one denarius, the standard pay for a day’s labor (L&N 6.80).

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

4 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

5 sn The Greek term translated the age when all things are renewed (παλιγγενεσία, palingenesia) is understood as a reference to the Messianic age, the time when all things are renewed and restored (cf. Rev 21:5).

6 sn The statement you…will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel looks at the future authority the Twelve will have when Jesus returns. They will share in Israel’s judgment.
