Matius 5:23

5:23 So then, if you bring your gift to the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you,

Matius 11:28

11:28 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Matius 16:2

16:2 He ¹  said, “When evening comes you say, ‘It will be fair weather, because the sky is red,’

Matius 18:26

18:26 Then the slave threw himself to the ground ²  before him, saying, ³  ‘Be patient with me, and I will repay you everything.’

Matius 18:29

18:29 Then his fellow slave threw himself down and begged him, ⁴  ‘Be patient with me, and I will repay you.’

[16:2]  ¹ tn Grk “But answering, he said to them.” The construction has been simplified in the translation and δέ (de) has not been translated.

[18:26]  ² tn Grk “falling therefore the slave bowed down to the ground.” The redundancy of this expression signals the desperation of the slave in begging for mercy.

[18:26]  ³ tc The majority of mss (א L W 058 0281 Ë^1,13 33 Ï it sy^p,h co) begin the slave’s plea with “Lord” (κύριε, kurie), though a few important witnesses lack this vocative (B D Θ 700 pc lat sy^s,c Or Chr). Understanding the parable to refer to the Lord, scribes would be naturally prone to add the vocative here, especially as the slave’s plea is a plea for mercy. Thus, the shorter reading is more likely to be authentic.

[18:29]  ⁴ tn Grk “begged him, saying.” The participle λέγων (legwn) is redundant here in contemporary English and has not been translated.
