rwp@Luke:13:15 @{The Lord answered him} (\apekrith de auti ho Kurios\). Note use of "the Lord" of Jesus again in Luke's narrative.

This pretentious faultfinder and all who agree with him. {Each of you} (\hekastos humn\). An _argumentum ad hominen_. These very critics of Jesus cared too much for an ox or an ass to leave it all the sabbath without water. {Stall} (\phatns\). Old word, in the N.T. only here and strkjv@Luke:2:7,12,16| the manger where the infant Jesus was placed. {To watering} (\potizei\). Old verb, causative, to give to drink.
