[23:14]  1 tn This term also appears in v. 2.

[23:14]  2 tn Grk “behold, I” A transitional use of ἰδού (idou) has not been translated here.

[23:14]  3 tn Grk “nothing did I find in this man by way of cause.” The reference to “nothing” is emphatic.

[23:18]  4 tn Grk “together, saying.” The participle λέγοντες (legontes) is redundant and has not been translated here.

[23:35]  6 tn A figurative extension of the literal meaning “to turn one’s nose up at someone”; here “ridicule, sneer at, show contempt for” (L&N 33.409).

The “if” clause reading creates a parallel with the earlier taunts (vv. 35, 37), and thus is most likely a motivated reading.

[23:39]  11 tn Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”
