[1:20]  1 tn Grk “behold.”

[1:20]  2 sn The predicted fulfillment in the expression my words, which will be fulfilled in their time takes place in Luke 1:63-66.

[1:20]  3 sn Silent, unable to speak. Actually Zechariah was deaf and mute as 1:61-63 indicates, since others had to use gestures to communicate with him.

[21:23]  4 sn Great distress means that this is a period of great judgment.

[24:18]  7 tn Grk “answering him, said.” This is redundant in English and has been simplified in the translation.

[24:18]  8 sn There is irony and almost a sense of mocking disbelief as the question “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things that have happened there in these days?” comes to Jesus; but, of course, the readers know what the travelers do not.

[24:18]  9 tn Grk “in it” (referring to the city of Jerusalem).
