Matius 26:47

Betrayal and Arrest

26:47 While he was still speaking, Judas, ³  one of the twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and elders of the people.

Matius 13:55

13:55 Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother named Mary? ⁴  And aren’t his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?

[27:3]  ¹ tn Grk “Then when.” Here τότε (tote) has been translated as “now” to indicate a somewhat parenthetical interlude in the sequence of events.

[27:3]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[26:47]  ³ tn Grk “behold, Judas.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).

[13:55]  ⁴ sn The reference to Jesus as the carpenter’s son is probably derogatory, indicating that they knew Jesus only as a common laborer like themselves. The reference to his mother…Mary (even though Jesus’ father was probably dead by this point) appears to be somewhat derogatory, for a man was not regarded as his mother’s son in Jewish usage unless an insult was intended (cf. Judg 11:1-2; John 4:41; 8:41; 9:29).
