Luk 16:17 | KJV | STEP | And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass , than one tittle of the law to fail .

Luke 16: 17

(KJV)

And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.

(NASB2020)

^aBut it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one ^{▼▼I.e., projection of a letter (serif)}stroke of a letter of the Law to fail.

(NET2full)

But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tiny stroke of a letter ^{▼▼tn Or “one small part of a letter” (L&N 33.37).} in the law to become void. ^{▼▼tn Grk “to fall”; that is, “to drop out of the text.” Jesus’ point may be that the law is going to reach its goal without fail, in that the era of the promised kingdom comes.}
