[1:10]  ¹ tn Or “was made”; Grk “came into existence.”

[1:10]  ² tn Grk “and,” but in context this is an adversative use of καί (kai) and is thus translated “but.”

[1:10]  ³ tn Or “know.”

[1:17]  ⁴ tn “But” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied to indicate the implied contrast between the Mosaic law and grace through Jesus Christ. John 1:17 seems to indicate clearly that the Old Covenant (Sinai) was being contrasted with the New. In Jewish sources the Law was regarded as a gift from God (Josephus, Ant. 3.8.10 [3.223]; Pirqe Avot 1.1; Sifre Deut 31:4 §305). Further information can be found in T. F. Glasson, Moses in the Fourth Gospel (SBT).

[13:28]  ¹³ tn Grk “reclining at the table.” The phrase reclining at the table reflects the normal practice in 1st century Near Eastern culture of eating a meal in a semi-reclining position.

[13:28]  ¹⁴ tn Or “knew.”

[13:28]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:28]  ¹⁶ tn Grk “to him”; the referent (Judas) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[14:6]  ¹⁶ tn Grk “Jesus said to him.”

[14:6]  ¹⁷ tn Or “I am the way, even the truth and the life.”
