Luke 20:26An Understandable Version (2005 edition)And they were not able to get hold of anything Jesus said in front of the people. And they marveled at His answer and did not say anything [further]. See the chapter |
Now we [all] know that everything the law says applies to those who are under [obligation to obey] that law, [Note: Here “the law” appears to refer to the Old Testament Scriptures generally, since Psalms and Isaiah are quoted. See verses 10-18]. This is so that the mouth of every objector may be stopped [i.e., from making excuses for his sin], and thereby bring the entire world under God’s judgment [i.e., both Jews and Gentiles].
