John 7:4

7:4 For no one who seeks to make a reputation for himself ¹  does anything in secret. ²  If you are doing these things, show yourself to the world.”

John 8:53

8:53 You aren’t greater than our father Abraham who died, are you? ³  And the prophets died too! Who do you claim to be?”

John 10:33

10:33 The Jewish leaders ⁴  replied, ⁵  “We are not going to stone you for a good deed ⁶  but for blasphemy, ⁷  because ⁸  you, a man, are claiming to be God.” ⁹ 

John 13:27

13:27 And after Judas ¹⁰  took the piece of bread, Satan entered into him. ¹¹  Jesus said to him, ¹²  “What you are about to do, do quickly.”

[7:4]  ¹ tn Or “seeks to be well known.”

[7:4]  ² sn No one who seeks to make a reputation for himself does anything in secret means, in effect: “if you’re going to perform signs to authenticate yourself as Messiah, you should do them at Jerusalem.” (Jerusalem is where mainstream Jewish apocalyptic tradition held that Messiah would appear.)

[8:53]  ³ 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 the tag is “are you?”).

[10:33]  ⁵ 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]  ⁶ tn Grk “answered him.”

[10:33]  ⁷ tn Or “good work.”

[10:33]  ⁸ sn This is the first time the official charge of blasphemy is voiced openly in the Fourth Gospel (although it was implicit in John 8:59).

[10:33]  ⁹ tn Grk “and because.”

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

[13:27]  ⁷ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Judas) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:27]  ⁸ tn Grk “into that one”; the pronoun “he” is more natural English style here.

[13:27]  ⁹ tn Grk “Then Jesus said to him.”
