[6:4]  ¹ tc L W Θ 0250 Ï it read ἐν τῷ φανερῷ (en tw fanerw, “openly”) at the end of this verse, giving a counterweight to what is done in secret. But this reading is suspect because of the obvious literary balance, because of detouring the point of the passage (the focus of vv. 1-4 is not on two kinds of public rewards but on human vs. divine approbation), and because of superior external testimony that lacks this reading (א B D Z Ë^1,13 33 al).

[13:20]  ² tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[13:20]  ³ tn Grk “The one sown on rocky ground, this is the one.” The next two statements like this one have this same syntactical structure.

[14:12]  ⁴ tn Grk “his”; the referent (John) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Here καί (kai) has been translated as “Then.”

[16:7]  ⁵ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of Jesus’ saying about the Pharisees and Sadducees.

[20:14]  ⁶ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[20:14]  ⁷ tn Grk “this last one,” translated as “this last man” because field laborers in 1st century Palestine were men.

[24:10]  ⁸ tn Or “many will fall away.” This could also refer to apostasy.

[24:37]  ⁹ sn Like the days of Noah, the time of the flood in Gen 6:5-8:22, the judgment will come as a surprise as people live their day to day lives.

[26:33]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “answering, Peter said to him.” This is somewhat redundant and has been simplified in the translation. Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[26:49]  ¹¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[26:49]  ¹² sn Judas’ act of betrayal when he kissed Jesus is especially sinister when it is realized that it was common in the culture of the times for a disciple to kiss his master when greeting him.

[27:37]  ¹³ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[27:37]  ¹⁴ sn Mention of the inscription is an important detail, because the inscription would normally give the reason for the execution. It shows that Jesus was executed for claiming to be a king. It was also probably written with irony from the executioners’ point of view.

[27:37]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “was written.”
