Luke 20:41 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 20:41

And he said unto them
The Ethiopic version reads, "to the Pharisees"; and so it appears, that it was to them he spoke, from ( Matthew 22:41 ) how say they?
The Syriac version reads, "how say the Scribes?" as in ( Mark 12:35 ) and the Persic version, how say the wise men, the doctors in Israel, that Christ is David's son?
that which nothing was more common among the Jews.

Luke 20:41 In-Context

39 ἀποκριθέντες δέ τινες τῶν γραμματέων εἶπαν · Διδάσκαλε, καλῶς εἶπας ·

40 οὐκέτι γὰρ ἐτόλμων ἐπερωτᾶν αὐτὸν οὐδέν.

41 Εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς · Πῶς λέγουσιν τὸν χριστὸν εἶναι Δαυὶδ υἱόν;

42 αὐτὸς γὰρ ⸃ Δαυὶδ λέγει ἐν βίβλῳ ψαλμῶν · Εἶπεν κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου · Κάθου ἐκ δεξιῶν μου

43 ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ὑποπόδιον τῶν ποδῶν σου.
