NET Notes

tn Grk “Who among you, having a slave… would say to him.”

tn See the note on the word “slave” in 7:2.

tn Grk “and recline at table,” as 1st century middle eastern meals were not eaten while sitting at a table, but while reclining on one’s side on the floor with the head closest to the low table and the feet farthest away. See BDAG 70 s.v. ἀναπίπτω 1.
