[37:35]  1 tn Heb “arose, stood”; which here suggests that they stood by him in his time of grief.

[37:35]  2 tn Heb “and he said, ‘Indeed I will go down to my son mourning to Sheol.’” Sheol was viewed as the place where departed spirits went after death.

[37:35]  3 tn Heb “his”; the referent (Joseph) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[30:23]  4 tn The imperfect verb would be a progressive imperfect, it is future, but it is also already underway.

[23:43]  5 tn Grk “he.”

[23:43]  6 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

[23:43]  7 sn Jesus gives more than the criminal asked for, because the blessing will come today, not in the future. He will be among the righteous. See the note on today in 2:11.

[23:43]  8 sn In the NT, paradise is mentioned three times. Here it refers to the abode of the righteous dead. In Rev 2:7 it refers to the restoration of Edenic paradise predicted in Isa 51:3 and Ezek 36:35. In 2 Cor 12:4 it probably refers to the “third heaven” (2 Cor 12:2) as the place where God dwells.
