NET Notes

¹tn Grk “answering, he said.” This is redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified to “he replied.”

²tn There is some discussion about the grammar of this verse in Greek. If “these” is the subject, then it reads, “These are my mother and brothers, those who.” If “these” is a nominative absolute, which is slightly more likely, then the verse more literally reads, “So my mother and brothers, they are those who.” The sense in either case is the same.

³sn Hearing and doing the word of God is another important NT theme: Luke 6:47-49; Jas 1:22-25.
