[7:42]  1 tn Grk “is from the seed” (an idiom for human descent).

[7:42]  2 sn An allusion to Ps 89:4.

[7:42]  3 sn An allusion to Mic 5:2.

[7:42]  4 tn Grk “the village where David was.”

[10:13]  5 tn Grk “does not have a care for the sheep.”

[10:13]  6 tc The phrase “he runs away” is lacking in several important mss (Ì44vid,45,66,75 א A*vid B D L [W] Θ 1 33 1241 al co). Most likely it was added by a later scribe to improve the readability of vv. 12-13, which is one long sentence in Greek. It has been included in the translation for the same stylistic reasons.
