[3:4]  ¹ tn Grk “a few names”; here ὄνομα (onoma) is used by figurative extension to mean “person” or “people”; according to L&N 9.19 there is “the possible implication of existence or relevance as individuals.”

[3:4]  ² tn Or “soiled” (so NAB, NRSV, NIV); NCV “have kept their clothes unstained”; CEV “have not dirtied your clothes with sin.”

[3:4]  ³ tn The word “dressed” is not in the Greek text, but is implied.

[11:3]  ⁴ tn The word “authority” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. “Power” would be another alternative that could be supplied here.

[16:6]  ⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate that this judgment is the result of what these wicked people did to the saints and prophets.

[16:6]  ⁶ tn Grk “They are worthy”; i.e., of this kind of punishment. By extension, “they got what they deserve.”

[17:6]  ⁷ tn Or “of the witnesses to Jesus.” Here the genitive ᾿Ιησοῦ (Ihsou) is taken as an objective genitive; Jesus is the object of their testimony.

[17:6]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[17:6]  ⁹ tn Grk “I marveled a great marvel” (an idiom for great astonishment).
