Luke 5v12-16

Preaching Luke 5:1-32 this week. It is part of a larger section which runs from 5:1-6:16 and is primarily about the calling of Jesus’ disciples (5:1-11, 27-32 and 6:12-16).

One of the more challenging aspects of prep was working out what Luke includes this healing of the leper within this section. There is a clear emphasis on sin and discipleship – but where does leprosy fit in?

2. and he found (3s aor act ind) sitting (pres mid pcpl masc acc pl – supplementary participle with a verb of perception) [there], in the temple, those selling (pres act pcpl masc acc pl) bulls and sheep and doves; and money-changers.
3. and he had made (aor act pcpl nom masc sing, attend circ) a whip from cords, he cast out (3s aor act ind) of the temple all the sheep and the bulls, and he poured out (3s aor act ind εκχεω) the money of the money-changers and he overturned (3s aor act ind ανατρεπω) the tables.
