[6:46]  ¹ tn Grk “this one.”

[6:46]  ² sn This is best taken as a parenthetical note by the author. Although some would attribute these words to Jesus himself, the switch from first person in Jesus’ preceding and following remarks to third person in v. 46 suggests that the author has added a clarifying comment here.

[7:31]  ³ tn Or “The common people” (as opposed to the religious authorities).

[7:31]  ⁴ tn Or “the Messiah” (Both Greek “Christ” and Hebrew and Aramaic “Messiah” mean “one who has been anointed”).

[7:31]  ⁵ tn Questions prefaced with μή (mh) in Greek anticipate a negative answer. This can sometimes be indicated by using a “tag” at the end in English (here it is “will he?”).

[8:47]  ⁵ tn Grk “who is of.”

[8:47]  ⁶ tn Grk “to God hears” (in the sense of listening to something and responding to it).

[8:47]  ⁷ tn Grk “you do not hear” (in the sense of listening to something and responding to it).

[8:47]  ⁸ tn Grk “you are not of God.”

[9:25]  ⁷ tn Grk “Then that one answered.”

[10:33]  ⁹ tn Or “the Jewish authorities”; Grk “the Jews.” Here again the phrase refers to the Jewish leaders. See the notes on the phrase “Jewish people” in v. 19 and “Jewish leaders” in vv. 24, 31.

[10:33]  ¹³ tn Grk “and because.”

[10:33]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “you, a man, make yourself to be God.”

[11:49]  ¹¹ tn Grk “said to them.” The indirect object αὐτοῖς (autois) has not been translated for stylistic reasons.

[11:51]  ¹³ tn Grk “say this from himself.”

[11:51]  ¹⁴ tn The word “Jewish” is not in the Greek text, but is clearly implied by the context (so also NIV; TEV “the Jewish people”).

[17:9]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “I am asking.”

[17:9]  ¹⁹ tn Or “because they are yours.”
