NET Notes: Mar 12:2

¹ tn See the note on the word “slave” in 10:44.

sn This slave (along with the others) represent the prophets God sent to the nation, who were mistreated and rejected.

² tn Grk “from the tenants,” but this is redundant in English, so the pronoun (“them”) was used in the translation.

³ tn Grk “from the fruits of the vineyard.”
