OET (OET-RV) Another one of his followers said to him, “I’ll follow you, Master, but first let me wait until I can bury[fn] my father.”

8:21 It’s not certain from either the text or the context whether this person meant that their father had just died (less likely, perhaps, because they probably wouldn’t have been there at all), or that they wanted to delay until their (presumably, elderly) father passed away before following Yeshua.
