Luke 24:18

Luke 24:18

16 But ^atheir eyes were restrained, so that they did not know Him.

17 And He said to them, “What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you¹ walk and are sad?”

18 Then the one ^awhose name was Cleopas answered and said to Him, “Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happened there in these days?”

19 And He said to them, “What things?” So they said to Him, “The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, ^awho was a Prophet ^bmighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

20 ^aand how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to be condemned to death, and crucified Him.

21 But we were hoping ^athat it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, today is the third day since these things happened.

22 Yes, and ^acertain women of our company, who arrived at the tomb early, astonished us.

23 When they did not find His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said He was alive.

24 And ^acertain of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said; but Him they did not see.”

Luke 24:19 >>

Dost thou alone sojourn? (su monov paroikeis). Monov is predicate adjective. "Hast thou been dwelling alone (all by thyself)?"

And not know? (kai ouk egnws). Second aorist active indicative and difficult to put into English as the aorist often is. The verb paroikew means to dwell beside one, then as a stranger like paroikoi (Ephesians 2:19). In Jerusalem everybody was talking about Jesus.
