[17:24] ¹tn Grk “the ones you have given me, I want these to be where I am with me.”

[17:24] ²tn Grk “before the foundation of the world.”

[17:2] ³tn Or “all people”; Grk “all flesh.”

[17:2] ⁴tn Grk “so that to everyone whom you have given to him, he may give to them eternal life.”

[17:4] ⁵tn Or “by finishing” or “by accomplishing.” Jesus now states that he has glorified the Father on earth by finishing (τελειώσας [teleiwsas] is best understood as an adverbial participle of means) the work which the Father had given him to do.

[17:4] ⁶tn Grk “the work that you gave to me so that I may do it.”

[17:22] ⁷tn Grk And the glory.” The conjunction καί (kai, “and”) has not been translated here in keeping with the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences.

[18:9] ⁹tn The words “He said this” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. There is an ellipsis in the Greek text that must be supplied for the modern English reader at this point.

[18:9] ¹⁰sn This expression is similar to John 6:39 and John 17:12.

[18:9] ¹¹tn Grk “Of the ones whom you gave me, I did not lose one of them.” The order of the clauses has been rearranged to reflect contemporary English style.

[17:9] ¹¹tn Grk “I am asking.”

[17:9] ¹²tn Grk “I am not asking.”

[17:9] ¹³tn Or “because they are yours.”

[17:11] ¹³tn Grk And I.” The conjunction καί (kai, “and”) has not been translated here in keeping with the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences.

[17:11] ¹⁴tn The context indicates that this should be translated as an adversative or contrastive conjunction.

[17:11] ¹⁵tn Or “protect them”; Grk “keep them.”

[17:11] ¹⁶tn Or “by your name.”

[17:11] ¹⁷tn The second repetition of “one” is implied, and is supplied here for clarity.

[17:12] ¹⁵tn Or “I protected them”; Grk “I kept them.”

[17:12] ¹⁶tn Grk “and guarded them.”

[17:12] ¹⁷tn Or “by your name.”

[17:12] ¹⁸tn Grk And not one.” The conjunction καί (kai, “and”) has not been translated here in keeping with the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences.

[17:12] ¹⁹tn Grk “the son of destruction” (a Semitic idiom for one appointed for destruction; here it is a reference to Judas).

[17:12] ²⁰sn A possible allusion to Ps 41:9 or Prov 24:22 LXX. The exact passage is not specified here, but in John 13:18, Ps 41:9 is explicitly quoted by Jesus with reference to the traitor, suggesting that this is the passage to which Jesus refers here. The previous mention of Ps 41:9 in John 13:18 probably explains why the author felt no need for an explanatory parenthetical note here. It is also possible that the passage referred to here is Prov 24:22 LXX, where in the Greek text the phrase “son of destruction” appears.
