The <a href="/wiki/Revised_Standard_Version" title="Revised Standard Version">Revised Standard Version</a> and the <a href="/wiki/New_King_James_Version" title="New King James Version">New King James Version</a> can be read in this way. Franklin notes that "more recent translations, assuming a consistency in the story as a whole, take the Greek ὅτι (<i>hoti</i>, translated as "for" in the quoted passage above) to mean, not "because" but "with the result that", for example the <a href="/wiki/Revised_English_Bible" title="Revised English Bible">Revised English Bible</a> translates, "Her great love proves that her many sins have been forgiven". Verse 48 then proclaims her forgiveness, which this translation assumes has already been pronounced to her.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="See_also">See also</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Luke_7&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: See also"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Dead_Sea_Scrolls" title="Dead Sea Scrolls">Dead Sea Scrolls</a> <a href="/wiki/4Q521" title="4Q521">4Q521</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Miracles_of_Jesus" title="Miracles of Jesus">Miracles of Jesus</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Nain,_Israel" class="mw-redirect" title="Nain, Israel">Nain, Israel</a></li> <li>Other related <a href="/wiki/Bible" title="Bible">Bible</a> parts: <a href="/wiki/Matthew_8" title="Matthew 8">Matthew 8</a>, <a href="/wiki/Matthew_11" title="Matthew 11">Matthew 11</a>, <a href="/wiki/John_4" title="John 4">John 4</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Luke_7&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap mw-references-columns"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-Halley-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-Halley_1-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">Halley, Henry H., <i>Halley's Bible Handbook</i>: an Abbreviated Bible Commentary. 23rd edition.
