[19:15]  ¹ tn Grk “went from there.”

[15:30]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “Then.”

[15:30]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[19:13]  ⁴ tn Grk “so that he would lay his hands on them and pray.”

[19:13]  ⁵ tn Grk “the disciples scolded them.” In the translation the referent has been specified as “those who brought them,” since otherwise the statement could be understood to mean that the disciples scolded the children rather than their parents who brought them.

[21:7]  ⁶ tn Grk “garments”; but this refers in context to their outer cloaks. The action is like 2 Kgs 9:13.

[23:4]  ⁷ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[21:1]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

[21:1]  ¹⁰ sn The exact location of the village of Bethphage is not known. Most put it on the southeast side of the Mount of Olives and northwest of Bethany, about 1.5 miles (3 km) east of Jerusalem.

[21:1]  ¹¹ sn “Mountain” in English generally denotes a higher elevation than it often does in reference to places in Palestine. The Mount of Olives is really a ridge running north to south about 3 kilometers (1.8 miles) long, east of Jerusalem across the Kidron Valley. Its central elevation is about 30 meters (100 ft) higher than Jerusalem. It was named for the large number of olive trees which grew on it.

[3:10]  ¹² sn Laid at the root. That is, placed and aimed, ready to begin cutting.

[22:44]  ¹³ sn The Lord said to my Lord. With David being the speaker, this indicates his respect for his descendant (referred to as my Lord). Jesus was arguing, as the ancient exposition assumed, that the passage is about the Lord’s anointed. The passage looks at an enthronement of this figure and a declaration of honor for him as he takes his place at the side of God. In Jerusalem, the king’s palace was located to the right of the temple to indicate this kind of relationship. Jesus was pressing the language here to get his opponents to reflect on how great Messiah is.

[22:44]  ¹⁴ sn A quotation from Ps 110:1.

[27:60]  ¹⁵ tc ‡ αὐτό (auto, “it”) is found after ἔθηκεν (eqhken, “placed”) in the majority of witnesses, including many important ones, though it seems to be motivated by a need for clarification and cannot therefore easily explain the rise of the shorter reading (which is read by א L Θ Ë¹³ 33 892 pc). Regardless of which reading is original (though with a slight preference for the shorter reading), English style requires the pronoun. NA²⁷ includes αὐτό here, no doubt due to the overwhelming external attestation.

[27:60]  ¹⁶ tn That is, cut or carved into an outcropping of natural rock, resulting in a cave-like structure (see L&N 19.25).

[27:60]  ¹⁷ tn Or “to the door,” “against the door.”

[5:15]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “Nor do they light.” The plural in Greek is indefinite, referring to people in general.

[5:15]  ¹⁹ tn Or “a bowl”; this refers to any container for dry material of about eight liters (two gallons) capacity. It could be translated “basket, box, bowl” (L&N 6.151).

[8:20]  ²⁰ tn Grk “the birds of the sky” or “the birds of the heaven”; the Greek word οὐρανός (ouranos) may be translated either “sky” or “heaven,” depending on the context. The idiomatic expression “birds of the sky” refers to wild birds as opposed to domesticated fowl (cf. BDAG 809 s.v. πετεινόν).

[8:20]  ²¹ sn Jesus’ reply is simply this: Does the man understand the rejection he will be facing? Jesus has no home in the world (the Son of Man has no place to lay his head).

[21:8]  ²² tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[4:13]  ²⁴ tn Grk “and leaving Nazareth, he came and took up residence in Capernaum.”

[4:13]  sn Capernaum was a town located on the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee, 680 ft (204 m) below sea level. It was a major trade and economic center in the North Galilean region, and it became the hub of operations for Jesus’ Galilean ministry.

[4:13]  map For location see Map1 D2; Map2 C3; Map3 B2.

[4:13]  ²⁵ tn Or “by the lake.”

[4:13]  sn By the sea refers to the Sea of Galilee.

[19:1]  ²⁶ tn Grk “it happened when.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[19:1]  ²⁷ tn “River” is not in the Greek text but is supplied for clarity. The region referred to here is sometimes known as Transjordan (i.e., “across the Jordan”).

[20:18]  ²⁸ tn Or “and the scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 2:4.

[23:29]  ²⁹ tn Or “scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 2:4.

[23:29]  ³⁰ tn Grk “Because you.” Here ὅτι (Joti) has not been translated.

[23:29]  ³¹ tn Or perhaps “the monuments” (see L&N 7.75-76).

[24:2]  ³² tn Grk “answering, he said to them.” The participle ἀποκριθείς (ajpokriqei") is redundant in English and has not been translated.

[24:2]  ³³ tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

[24:2]  ³⁴ sn With the statement not one stone will be left on another Jesus predicted the total destruction of the temple, something that did occur in a.d. 70.

[24:2]  ³⁵ tn Grk “not one stone will be left here on another which will not be thrown down.”

[26:50]  ³⁶ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[26:50]  ³⁷ tn Grk “and put their hands on Jesus.”

[28:6]  ³⁸ tn The verb here is passive (ἠγέρθη, hgerqh). This “divine passive” (see ExSyn 437-38) points to the fact that Jesus was raised by God.

[28:6]  ³⁹ tc Expansions on the text, especially when the Lord is the subject, are a common scribal activity. In this instance, since the subject is embedded in the verb, three major variants have emerged to make the subject explicit: ὁ κύριος (Jo kurio", “the Lord”; A C D L W 0148 Ë^1,13 Ï lat), τὸ σῶμα τοῦ κυρίου (to swma tou kuriou, “the body of the Lord”; 1424 pc), and ὁ ᾿Ιησοῦς (Jo Ihsou", “Jesus”; Φ). The reading with no explicit subject, however, is superior on both internal and external grounds, being supported by א B Θ 33 892* pc co.
