[32:25]  1 tn The word is difficult to interpret. There does not seem to be enough evidence to justify the KJV’s translation “naked.” It appears to mean something like “let loose” or “lack restraint” (Prov 29:18). The idea seems to be that the people had broken loose, were undisciplined, and were completely given over to their desires.

[32:25]  2 tn The last two words of the verse read literally “for a whispering among those who rose up against them.” The foes would have mocked and derided them when they heard that they had abandoned the God who had led them out of Egypt (S. R. Driver, Exodus, 354).

[32:2]  3 sn B. Jacob (Exodus, 937-38) argues that Aaron simply did not have the resolution that Moses did, and wanting to keep peace he gave in to the crowd. He also tries to explain that Aaron was wanting to show their folly through the deed. U. Cassuto also says that Aaron’s request for the gold was a form of procrastination, but that the people quickly did it and so he had no alternative but to go through with it (Exodus, 412). These may be right, since Aaron fully understood what was wrong with this, and what the program was all about. The text gives no strong indication to support these ideas, but there are enough hints from the way Aaron does things to warrant such a conclusion.

[12:9]  4 sn This ruling was to prevent their eating it just softened by the fire or partially roasted as differing customs might prescribe or allow.

[27:3]  5 tn Grk “Then when.” Here τότε (tote) has been translated as “now” to indicate a somewhat parenthetical interlude in the sequence of events.

[27:3]  6 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[27:5]  7 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the leaders’ response to Judas.

[27:6]  8 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[27:7]  9 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[1:18]  10 tn The referent of “this man” (Judas) was specified in the translation for clarity.

[1:18]  11 tn Traditionally, “with the reward of his wickedness.”

[1:18]  12 tn Traditionally, “falling headlong.”

[1:18]  13 tn Or “all his bowels.”

[7:41]  14 tn Grk “And.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

[7:41]  15 tn Grk “In those days.”

[7:41]  16 tn Or “a bull calf” (see Exod 32:4-6). The term μοσχοποιέω (moscopoiew) occurs only in Christian writings according to BDAG 660 s.v.

[7:41]  17 tn Grk “and brought,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

[7:41]  18 tn The imperfect verb εὐφραίνοντο (eufrainonto) has been translated ingressively. See BDAG 414-15 s.v. εὐφραίνω 2.

[7:41]  19 tn Or “in what they had done.”
