Robertson Word Pictures - Luke 21:14 - 21:14


(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Not to meditate beforehand (mē promeletāin). The classical word for conning a speech beforehand. Mar 13:11 has promerimnaō, a later word which shows previous anxiety rather than previous preparation.

How to answer (apologēthēnai). First aorist passive infinitive. It is the preparation for the speech of defence (apology) that Jesus here forbids, not the preparation of a sermon.
