Markus 15:41

15:41 When he was in Galilee, they had followed him and given him support. ⁵  Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem ⁶  were there too.

[3:9]  ¹ tn Grk “they”; the referent (the crowd) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[6:8]  ² sn Neither Matt 10:9-10 nor Luke 9:3 allow for a staff. It might be that Matthew and Luke mean not taking an extra staff, or that the expression is merely rhetorical for “traveling light,” which has been rendered in two slightly different ways.

[6:8]  ³ tn Or “no traveler’s bag”; or possibly “no beggar’s bag” (L&N 6.145; BDAG 811 s.v. πήρα).

[6:26]  ⁴ tn Grk “and being deeply grieved, the king did not want.”

[15:41]  ⁵ tn Grk “and ministered to him.”

[15:41]  sn Cf. Luke 8:3.
