NET Notes

1 tn Grk “And they.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

2 tn The Greek word means “to insult strongly” or “slander.”

3 tn Grk “and said.”

4 tn Grk “You are that one’s disciple.”
