probably a gloss.

Vv. 52-56. Samaritan intolerance.— cis κώµην Σαμαρειτῶν: this indicates an intention to go southward through Samaritan territory. Not an unusual thing. Josephus (Antiq., xx., vi. 1) states that it was the custom for Galileans going to Jerusalem to the feasts to pass through Βαπηατία.---«ἑτοιμάσαι a., to pre- pare fer Him, z.e., to find lodgings for the night.—éere in view of the sequel can only express tendency or intention. —oix ἐδέξαντο a.: the aorist, implying “that they at once rejected Him,” Farrar (C. G. T.).—8re introduces the reason: Christ’s face was, looked like, going to Jerusalem. In view of what Josephus states, this hardly accounts for the inhospitable treatment. Perhaps the manner of the messengers had some- thing to do with it. Had Jesus gone Himself the result might have been

In that case the result would make Him change His plan, and turn aside from Samaria into Peraea. If so then Baur’s idea of a Samaritan ministry is a mis- nomer.—Ver. 54. ᾿Ιάκωβος καὶ Ἰωάννης : their outburst of temper, revealed in their truculent proposal, probably indi- cated the attitude of the whole com- pany. In that case journeying through Samaria was hopeless.—xeraBfvat, in- finitive, instead of tva with subjunctive as often after eiwetv.— Ver. 55. στραφεὶς : an imposing gesture, as in vii. 9, 44.— Ver. 56. els ἑτέραν κώµην, to another village, probably in Galilee; both in the borderland.
Vv. 57-62. New disciples.—év τῇ 686: the indication of time is not precise. It does not mean, on the way to the other village, mentioned just before (Meyer), but on the way to Jerusalem (ver. 51).
