Greek Commentary for Luke 4:36
Mark has εταμβητησαν ethambēthēsan spake together one with another Imperfect indicative active and the reciprocal pronoun. Mark has simply the infinitive συνζητειν sunzētein (question). [source]
We have here an ambiguous οτι hoti as in Luke 1:45, which can be either the relative “that” or the casual οτι hoti “because” or “for,” as the Revised Version has it. Either makes good sense. Luke adds here δυναμει dunamei (with power) to Mark‘s “authority” So Luke where Mark has “and they obey him” (και υπακουουσιν αυτωι kai upakouousin autōi). [source]
So Luke where Mark has “and they obey him” (και υπακουουσιν αυτωι kai upakouousin autōi). [source]
Lit., as Rev., amazement came upon all. Θάμβος ,amazement, is used by Luke only. The kindred verb, θαμβέομαι ,to be amazed, occurs only once in Luke (Acts 9:6), and three times in Mark; while Mark alone has the strong compound ἐκθαμβέω ,to be greatly amazed (Mark 9:15). [source]
