NET Notes: Mar 14:43

¹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Or “approached.” This is a different verb than the one translated “arrived” in Matt 26:47 and below in v. 45, although in this context the meanings probably overlap.

³ tn Or “from the chief priests, scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 1:22.
