[1:24]  ¹ tn Grk “After these days.” The phrase refers to a general, unspecified period of time that passes before fulfillment comes.

[1:24]  ² tn Or “Elizabeth conceived.”

[1:24]  ³ sn The text does not state why Elizabeth withdrew into seclusion, nor is the reason entirely clear.

[1:24]  ⁴ tn Grk “she kept herself in seclusion, saying.” The participle λέγουσα (legousa) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[1:31]  ⁵ tn Grk “And behold.”

[1:31]  ⁶ tn Grk “you will conceive in your womb.”

[1:31]  ⁷ tn Or “and bear.”

[1:31]  ⁸ tn Grk “you will call his name.”

[1:31]  ⁹ tn See v. 13 for a similar construction.

[5:9]  ⁹ sn An explanatory conjunction (For) makes it clear that Peter’s exclamation is the result of a surprising set of events. He speaks, but the others feel similarly.

[5:9]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Peter) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[5:9]  ¹¹ sn In the Greek text, this term is in an emphatic position.

[22:54]  ¹³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[22:54]  ¹⁴ tn Or “seized” (L&N 37.109).

[22:54]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:54]  ¹⁶ sn Putting all the gospel accounts together, there is a brief encounter with Annas (brought him into the high priest’s house, here and John 18:13, where Annas is named); the meeting led by Caiaphas (Matt 26:57-68 = Mark 14:53-65; and then a Sanhedrin meeting (Matt 27:1; Mark 15:1; Luke 22:66-71). These latter two meetings might be connected and apparently went into the morning.

[1:36]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “behold.”

[1:36]  ¹⁸ tn Some translations render the word συγγενίς (sungeni") as “cousin” (so Phillips) but the term is not necessarily this specific.

[1:36]  ¹⁹ tn Or “has conceived.”

[1:36]  ²⁰ tn Grk “and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren.” Yet another note on Elizabeth’s loss of reproach also becomes a sign of the truth of the angel’s declaration.

[2:21]  ²¹ tn Grk “And when eight days were completed.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[2:21]  ²² sn Jesus’ parents obeyed the angel as Zechariah and Elizabeth had (1:57-66). These events are taking place very much under God’s direction.

[5:7]  ²⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate consequential nature of the action.

[5:7]  ²⁶ tn That is, “they signaled by making gestures” (L&N 33.485).

[5:7]  ²⁷ tn This infinitive conveys the idea that the boats were at the point of sinking.
