In this section at least it is obvious that all
traits in St. Luke different from or in addition to
St. Matthew do not proceed from Q, and that
St. Matthew thus transmits the source in the more
original form. The two deputations to our Lord
(in place of the personal interview of the centurion)
are a later addition. This is strikingly shown
(1) by the fact that the long speech which St. Luke
assigns to the friends is intelligible and appropriate
only if it was spoken by the centurion himself, and
(2) because also in St. John (iy. 46 ff.) the centurion
(BaoiAxds) comes himself. An attempt to distinguish
between that portion of the additional matter in
St. Luke which perhaps came to him through tradi-
tion, and that for which he himself is solely re-
sponsible, is under such circumstances unnecessary.
I would only remark that évrimos (verse 2), of wapa-
yevouevor (verse 4), oovdaiws (verse 4), pmaxpay
améxew (verse 6), did (verse 7), aftovv (verse 7), the
passive taccecOa (verse 8) are, as far as the gospels
