Looks like a transcriptional error where your eyes jumped up one line in the NA
text. You probably intended to write
Luke 9:58 OUK ECEI POU THN KEFALHN KLINH
"he does not have (a place) where he might rest the/his head"
> This is translated in every translation I have read as an infinitive clause.
> NRSV translates the verse as "but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."
The infinitive is an English way of expressing it in a short, natural way. It
means the same as the more literal translation above.
Best wishes,
Iver Larsen
