Markus 4:13

4:13 He said to them, “Don’t you understand this parable? Then ¹  how will you understand any parable?

Markus 15:2

15:2 So ²  Pilate asked him, “Are you the king ³  of the Jews?” He replied, ⁴  “You say so.” ⁵ 

[4:13]  ¹ tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[15:2]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of previous action in the narrative.

[15:2]  ³ sn “Are you the king of the Jews?” Pilate was interested in this charge because of its political implications of sedition against Rome.

[15:2]  ⁴ tn Grk “answering, he said to him.” The participle ἀποκριθείς (apokriqeis) is redundant, but the syntax of the phrase has been modified for clarity.

[15:2]  ⁵ sn The reply “You say so” is somewhat enigmatic, like Jesus’ earlier reply to the Jewish leadership (mentioned in Matt 26:64 and Luke 22:70).
