[2:5]  ¹ sn The plural pronoun their makes it clear that Jesus was responding to the faith of the entire group, not just the paralyzed man.

[3:11]  ³ sn Unclean spirits refers to evil spirits.

[6:49]  ⁴ tn Grk “on the sea,” “on the lake.” The translation “water” has been used here for stylistic reasons (cf. the same phrase in v. 48).
