[20:47]  1 tn Grk “who,” continuing the sentence begun in v. 46.

[20:47]  2 sn How they were able to devour widows’ houses is debated. Did they seek too much for contributions, or take too high a commission for their work, or take homes after debts failed to be paid? There is too little said here to be sure.

[20:47]  3 tn Grk “houses,” “households”; however, the term can have the force of “property” or “possessions” as well (O. Michel, TDNT 5:131; BDAG 695 s.v. οἶκια 1.a).

[22:54]  4 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[22:54]  5 tn Or “seized” (L&N 37.109).

[22:54]  6 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[22:54]  7 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.
