John 19:18

19:18 There they ⁶  crucified ⁷  him along with two others, ⁸  one on each side, with Jesus in the middle.

[1:35]  ¹ sn John refers to John the Baptist.

[1:35]  ² tn “There” is not in the Greek text but is implied by current English idiom.

[1:37]  ³ tn Grk “his”; the referent (John) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[1:37]  ⁴ tn Grk “And the two disciples heard him speaking.”

[1:37]  ⁵ sn The expression followed Jesus pictures discipleship, which means that to learn from Jesus is to follow him as the guiding priority of one’s life.

[19:18]  ⁵ tn Grk “where they.” This is a continuation of the previous verse in Greek, but contemporary English style tends toward shorter sentences. A literal translation would result in a lengthy and awkward English sentence.

[19:18]  ⁶ sn See the note on Crucify in 19:6.

[19:18]  ⁷ tn Grk “and with him two others.”
