Abowiem naród nasz miłuje i onżeć nam zbudował bożnicę.
Albowiem miłuje naród nasz, i on nam bóżnicę zbudował.
bo kocha nasz naród i sam zbudował nam synagogę.
bowiem miłuje nasz naród i sam zbudował nam bóżnicę.
Miłuje bowiem nasz naród i zbudował nam synagogę.
Miłuje bowiem lud nasz i sam zbudował nam synagogę.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For he loveth our nation,.... The Jewish nation, which was Christ's nation, as well as theirs, he being a Jew; see John 18:35. This they mention as an argument to induce him to have a regard to the centurion, though he was a Gentile; since he was a friend of the Jews, and well affected and disposed to them, which was very rare: it was not common for the Gentiles to love the Jews, any more than the Jews the Gentiles; there was an hatred, yea, an enmity between them; but this man, very likely, was a proselyte to their religion, as the following instance seems to show:
and he hath built us a synagogue; at his own private charge, and by the assistance of his soldiers under him, whom he might employ in this work: sometimes a single person built a synagogue at his own expense, and gave it to the citizens; of which the Jews say, o
"if a man builds an house, and afterwards devotes it to a synagogue, it is as a synagogue.''
o Piske Harosh Megilia, c. 4. art. 1.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Luke 7:5. He loveth our nation — He is a warm friend to the Jews; and has given a full proof of his affection to them in building them a synagogue. This he had done at his own proper charges; having no doubt employed his own men in the work.
