1 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated. 2 tn Or “obey”; Grk “hear.” See the note on the phrase “respond to” in v. 29. 3 sn The concluding statement of the parable, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead, provides a hint that even Jesus’ resurrection will not help some to respond. The message of God should be good enough. Scripture is the sign to be heeded. |
