[1:13]  1 tn The passive means that the prayer was heard by God.

[1:13]  2 tn Grk “a son, and you”; καί (kai) has not been translated. Instead a semicolon is used in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[1:13]  3 tn Grk “you will call his name John.” The future tense here functions like a command (see ExSyn 569-70). This same construction occurs in v. 31.

[8:35]  4 tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the people’s response to the report.

[8:35]  5 tn Grk “Jesus, and they.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
