1 tn “River” is not in the Greek text but is supplied for clarity.
2 tn Or “Lord.” The Greek κύριος (kurios) means both “Sir” and “Lord.” In this passage the paralytic who was healed by Jesus never acknowledges Jesus as Lord – he rather reports Jesus to the authorities.
3 tn Grk “while I am going.”
4 tn Grk “another.”
5 tn The word “there” is not in the Greek text but is implied.
3 tn Grk “Jesus answered.”
4 sn The piece of bread was a broken-off piece of bread (not merely a crumb).
5 tn Grk “after I have dipped it.” The words “in the dish” are not in the Greek text, but the presence of a bowl or dish is implied.
6 tn The words “in the dish” are not in the Greek text, but the presence of a bowl or dish is implied.
4 tn Grk And I.” The conjunction καί (kai, “and”) has not been translated here in keeping with the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences.
5 tn The context indicates that this should be translated as an adversative or contrastive conjunction.
6 tn Or “protect them”; Grk “keep them.”
7 tn Or “by your name.”
8 tn The second repetition of “one” is implied, and is supplied here for clarity.
5 tn Or “I protected them”; Grk “I kept them.”
6 tn Grk “and guarded them.”
7 tn Or “by your name.”
8 tn Grk And not one.” The conjunction καί (kai, “and”) has not been translated here in keeping with the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences.
9 tn Grk “the son of destruction” (a Semitic idiom for one appointed for destruction; here it is a reference to Judas).
10 sn A possible allusion to Ps 41:9 or Prov 24:22 LXX. The exact passage is not specified here, but in John 13:18, Ps 41:9 is explicitly quoted by Jesus with reference to the traitor, suggesting that this is the passage to which Jesus refers here. The previous mention of Ps 41:9 in John 13:18 probably explains why the author felt no need for an explanatory parenthetical note here. It is also possible that the passage referred to here is Prov 24:22 LXX, where in the Greek text the phrase “son of destruction” appears.
