John 1:46

1:46 Nathanael ¹  replied, ²  “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” ³  Philip replied, ⁴  “Come and see.”

John 12:2

12:2 So they prepared a dinner for Jesus ⁵  there. Martha ⁶  was serving, and Lazarus was among those present at the table ⁷  with him.

[1:46]  ¹ tn Grk “And Nathanael.”

[1:46]  ² tn Grk “said to him.”

[1:46]  ³ sn Can anything good come out of Nazareth? may be a local proverb expressing jealousy among the towns.

[1:46]  ⁴ tn Grk “And Philip said to him.”

[12:2]  ⁵ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity and to conform with contemporary English style.

[12:2]  ⁶ tn Grk “And Martha.” The connective καί (kai, “and”) has been omitted in the translation because it would produce a run-on sentence in English.

[12:2]  ⁷ tn Grk “reclining at the table.”
