Markus 7:18

7:18 He said to them, “Are you so foolish? Don’t you understand that whatever goes into a person from outside cannot defile him?

Lukas 24:25-27

24:25 So ³  he said to them, “You ⁴  foolish people ⁵  – how slow of heart ⁶  to believe ⁷  all that the prophets have spoken! 24:26 Wasn’t ⁸  it necessary ⁹  for the Christ ¹⁰  to suffer these things and enter into his glory?” 24:27 Then ¹¹  beginning with Moses and all the prophets, ¹²  he interpreted to them the things written about ¹³  himself in all the scriptures.

Wahyu 3:19

3:19 All those ¹⁴  I love, I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent!

[15:16]  ¹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[24:25]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the disciples’ inability to believe in Jesus’ resurrection.

[24:25]  ⁴ tn Grk “O,” an interjection used both in address and emotion (BDAG 1101 s.v. 1).

[24:25]  ⁵ tn The word “people” is not in the Greek text, but is supplied to complete the interjection.
