This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Being angry (orgistheis). First aorist (ingressive) passive, becoming angry.

Quickly (tacheōs). The dinner is ready and no time is to be lost. The invitation goes still to those in the city.

Streets and lanes (tas plateias kai rhumas). Broadways and runways (broad streets and narrow lanes).

Maimed (anapeirous). So Westcott and Hort for the old word anapērous, due to itacism (ei

=ē in pronunciation). The word is compounded of ana and pēros, lame all the way up.
