Cross-Reference Analysis
09 Cross-Reference Analysis — Luke (German)
| # | Luke ref | OT/NT ref | Relationship | German rendering note | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Luke 4:18-19 | Isaiah 61:1-2; 58:6 | The Nazareth Manifesto | Direct, composite quotation; core passage foundation. | Critical |
| 2 | Luke 1:46-55 | 1 Samuel 2:1-10 (Hannah’s song) | The Magnificat’s structural model | Mary’s song closely echoes Hannah’s song of praise; a recognized literary parallel worth noting for teaching material. | Medium |
| 3 | Luke 3:4-6 | Isaiah 40:3-5 | Prepare the way of the Lord | Direct quotation, parallel to Matthew 3:3/Mark 1:3; Luke uniquely extends the quotation to include “all flesh shall see the salvation of God,” reinforcing the universal_scope_of_gospel doctrine. | High |
| 4 | Luke 4:8, 12 | Deuteronomy 6:13; 6:16 | Temptation responses | Parallel to Matthew 4; note Luke’s different ordering of the three temptations relative to Matthew, a recognized literary-structural difference, not a contradiction. | Medium |
| 5 | Luke 20:17 | Psalm 118:22 | The stone the builders rejected | Parallel to Matthew 21:42/Mark 12:10-11. | Medium |
| 6 | Luke 22:37 | Isaiah 53:12 | Numbered with the transgressors | Direct quotation applied to Jesus’ own approaching death; ties to the Suffering Servant tradition already noted for Mark 10:45. | High |
| 7 | Luke 23:34 (if authentic) | (no direct OT citation; a general prayer of intercession) | Father, forgive them | See the textual-critical note in 07_semantic_analysis.md. | Critical |
