Matthew 17:10-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 [a](A)Then the disciples asked him, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?” 11 (B)He said in reply,[b] “Elijah will indeed come and restore all things; 12 (C)but I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him but did to him whatever they pleased. So also will the Son of Man suffer at their hands.” 13 [c]Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist.

- 17:10 See notes on Mt 3:4; 16:14.
- 17:11–12 The preceding question and this answer may reflect later controversy with Jews who objected to the Christian claims for Jesus that Elijah had not yet come.
- 17:13 See Mt 11:14.
- 17:14–20 Matthew has greatly shortened the Marcan story (Mk 9:14–29). Leaving aside several details of the boy’s illness, he concentrates on the need for faith, not so much on the part of the boy’s father (as does Mark, for Matthew omits Mk 9:22b–24) but on that of his own disciples whose inability to drive out the demon is ascribed to their little faith (Mt 17:20).
Mattheüs 17:10-13
BasisBijbel
10 De leerlingen vroegen Hem: "Hoe kan het dan dat de wetgeleerden zeggen dat eerst Elia nog moet komen?" 11 Hij antwoordde: "Ja, Elia zal eerst komen en alles weer goed maken. 12 Maar Ik zeg jullie dat Elia al gekomen is. Maar ze hebben hem niet herkend. En ze hebben met hem gedaan wat ze wilden. Op dezelfde manier zal ook de Mensenzoon door hen moeten lijden." 13 Toen begrepen de leerlingen dat Hij het over Johannes de Doper had.
