Verse 21
- "Within you." The Greek entos can mean either "in" or "among/in the midst of." Although traditionally this has traditionally understood more in the sense of "within," as the KJV renders this, more recent scholarship tends to favor the "among" meaning (see for example these translations). As variations of the "among" reading, this could be referring either to the ministry of Jesus, or this could mean that the kingdom is "within one's grasp, or this could mean that the kingdom of God is coming soon and suddenly/unexpectedly (Bultmann, for example, takes this view).
