Markus 7:13

7:13 Thus you nullify ¹  the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like this.”

Markus 12:40

12:40 They ²  devour widows’ property, ³  and as a show make long prayers. These men will receive a more severe punishment.”

[7:13]  ¹ tn Grk “nullifying.” This participle shows the results of the Pharisees’ command.

[12:40]  ² tn Grk “who,” continuing the sentence begun in v. 38.

[12:40]  ³ tn Grk “houses,” “households”; however, the term can have the force of “property” or “possessions” as well (O. Michel, TDNT 5:131; BDAG 695 s.v. οἶκια 1.a).
