1 | Who is speaking in Luke 19:27? | Luke 19:27 | JK123 | 217971 | ||
Hi Guys, I thank you all for your answers and I apologize because I don't think I was clear with my question. Let me clear up what I do understand. I certainly understand that the words are physically coming out of the mouth of Jesus for the entire sequence. I also understand the meaning behind the verses whether they are direct speech or part of the parable. The meaning is quite clear to me. What I find significant is whether or not Luke 19:27 represents a direct commandement from Jesus to His listeners, or whether it is a commandment coming from the "nobleman" in the parable. If it comes as direct from Jesus, It would be the only place in the entire gospels where Jesus advocates His listeneres to use violence on His behalf. what makes the sequence so confusing is that verse 26 is clearly not part of the parable, that had to be direct speech from Jesus to his listeners (at least in my opinion) But translations like the NIV attribute it to the "nobleman", and not directly to Jesus as a direct saying to His listeners If Jesus continues on in V.27 with direct speech to His listeners, He is giving a very serious order, and again, one that is unique for the gospels. Thanks Again Guys Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated God Bless Jim |
