^{page 565 note 3} The servants therefore match the Matthaean disciples in whom his community sees itself reflected as it listens receptively to its kyrios.

^{page 566 note 2} M. de Goedt, art. cit., 35f argues for dependence on an earlier tradition of the interpretation, and correctly suggests that ‘the sons of the kingdom’ was a phrase figuring in the Vorlage of Matt. 8.12 = Luke 13.28. However, by failing to notice the literary proximity of the two traditions in question he is prevented from seeing the source as the Q saying rather than a pre-Matthaean version of 13.36–43.

^{page 567 note 1} The others are Luke 12.39 (Q), 14.21 (contrast Matt. 22.7) and 22.11 (Mark 14.14).
