(33) The owners thereof.--In this instance St. Luke, though less graphic in his narrative generally, is more specific than St. Mark, who represents the question as coming from "some of those that stood by." The use of the same Greek word for "owner" and for the "Lord" affords a striking example of the elasticity of its range of meaning.
