Luke:6:21
rwp@Luke:6:21 @{Now} (\nun\). Luke adds this adverb here and in the next sentence after "weep." This sharpens the contrast between present sufferings and the future blessings. {Filled} (\chortasthˆsesthe\). Future passive indicative. The same verb in strkjv@Matthew:5:6|. Originally it was used for giving fodder (\chortos\) to animals, but here it is spiritual fodder or food except in strkjv@Luke:15:16; strkjv@16:21|. Luke here omits "and thirst after righteousness." {Weep} (\klaiontes\). Audible weeping. Where strkjv@Matthew:5:4| has "mourn" (\penthountes\). {Shall laugh} (\gelasete\). Here strkjv@Matthew:5:4| has "shall be comforted." Luke's words are terse.
