[10:5]  1 tn Heb “the food on his table.”

[10:5]  2 tn Heb “the seating of his servants and the standing of his attendants.”

[10:5]  3 tn Heb “there was no breath still in her.”

[12:37]  4 tn See the note on the word “slave” in 7:2.

[12:37]  5 tn Or “watching”; Grk “awake,” but in context this is not just being awake but alert and looking out.

[12:37]  6 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

[12:37]  7 tn See v. 35 (same verb).

[12:37]  8 tn Grk “have them recline at table,” as 1st century middle eastern meals were not eaten while sitting at a table, but while reclining on one’s side on the floor with the head closest to the low table and the feet farthest away.

[12:37]  9 tn The participle παρελθών (parelqwn) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[12:37]  10 sn He…will come and wait on them is a reversal of expectation, but shows that what Jesus asks for he is willing to do as well; see John 13:5 and 15:18-27, although those instances merely foreshadow what is in view here.

[3:20]  11 tn Grk “Behold.”

[3:20]  12 tn Grk “come in to him.”
