[7:36]  ¹ sn See the note on Pharisees in 5:17.

[7:36]  ² tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:36]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate that Jesus’ action was the result of the Pharisee’s invitation.

[7:36]  ⁴ tn Grk “and reclined at table,” as 1st century middle eastern meals were not eaten while sitting at a table, but while reclining on one’s side on the floor with the head closest to the low table and the feet farthest away.

[13:31]  ⁵ tn Grk “At that very hour.”

[13:31]  ⁶ sn See the note on Pharisees in 5:17.

[13:31]  ⁷ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
