¹ tn Grk “remember him.”

² tn Grk “from among men,” but since the point in context is shared humanity (rather than shared maleness), the plural Greek term ἀνθρώπων (anqrwpwn) has been translated “people.”

³ tn Grk “who is taken from among people is appointed.”

⁴ tn Grk “appointed on behalf of people in reference to things relating to God.”

³ tn Here ἀνθρώποις (anqrwpoi") has been translated as a generic noun (“people”).

⁴ tn Grk “and after this – judgment.”

⁴ tn The plural Greek term ἄνθρωποι (anqrwpoi) is used here in a generic sense, referring to both men and women, and is thus translated “people.”

⁵ tn Grk “by something greater”; the rest of the comparison (“than themselves”) is implied.

⁶ tn Grk “the oath for confirmation is an end of all dispute.”

⁵ tc Some important mss (א* C* P 0285^vid 33 1175 1739 pc lat) lack καί (kai), but because the omission conforms to the wording of Ps 118:6 (117:6 LXX), it is suspect.
