That Luke is dependent upon Mark, or the tradition which Mark is using, in Luke 22.69 is, we believe, to be argued from the way in which he maintains the Semitic circumlocution for God, «Power», while adding «of God» for the sake of his Gentile readers who may not understand the construction.

In certain peculiarities of expression, in the habit of sometimes speaking of God in circumlocutions, Jesus resembles the pious Jews, if our record is to be trusted on this point. (religion-online.org)
This extravagant circumlocution seems to be an elaborate way to avoid to the term «subject,» either because he did not wish to contrast it with «subjective aim,» or because he was uncertain just how the subject should now be conceived. (religion-online.org)
