[7:18]  ¹ tn Grk “And John’s.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. This is a reference to John the Baptist as the following context makes clear.

[7:18]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate that John’s action was a result of the report he had heard.

[7:18]  ³ tn Grk “And calling two of his disciples, John sent.” The participle προσκαλεσάμενος (proskalesameno") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[8:36]  ⁴ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[8:36]  ⁵ tn Or “had been delivered”; Grk “had been saved.” This should not be understood as an expression for full salvation. They were only discussing the healing.

[18:37]  ⁷ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated. “They” could refer to bystanders or people in the crowd.

[8:20]  ¹⁰ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the sequence of events.

[24:9]  ¹³ sn Judas is now absent and “the twelve” have now become “the eleven.” Other disciples are also gathered with the remaining eleven.

[8:34]  ¹⁶ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[8:34]  ¹⁷ tn Or “reported it.” This verb is used three times in the next few verses (vv. 36, 37), showing how the healing became a major topic of conversation in the district.

[8:34]  ¹⁸ tn Or “city.”

[9:36]  ¹⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:36]  ²⁰ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the concluding summary of the account.

[9:36]  ²¹ sn Although the disciples told no one at the time, later they did recount this. The commentary on this scene is 2 Pet 1:17-18.

[9:36]  ²² tn Grk “in those days.”

[13:1]  ²² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

[13:1]  ²³ sn This is an event that otherwise is unattested, though several events similar to it are noted in Josephus (J. W. 2.9.2-4 [2.169-177]; Ant. 13.13.5 [13.372-73], 18.3.1-2 [18.55-62]; 18.4.1 [18.85-87]). It would have caused a major furor.

[7:22]  ²⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the relationship to Jesus’ miraculous cures in the preceding sentence.

[7:22]  ²⁶ tn Grk “answering, he said to them.” This is redundant in English and has been simplified in the translation to “he answered them.”

[7:22]  ²⁷ sn The same verb has been translated “inform” in 7:18.

[7:22]  ²⁸ sn What you have seen and heard. The following activities all paraphrase various OT descriptions of the time of promised salvation: Isa 35:5-6; 26:19; 29:18-19; 61:1. Jesus is answering not by acknowledging a title, but by pointing to the nature of his works, thus indicating the nature of the time.

[7:22]  ²⁹ tn Grk “and the,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

[8:47]  ²⁸ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[8:47]  ²⁹ tn Or “could not remain unnoticed” (see L&N 28.83).

[8:47]  ³⁰ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. The order of the clauses in the remainder of the verse has been rearranged to reflect contemporary English style.

[8:47]  ³¹ tn Grk “told for what reason.”

[14:21]  ³¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the result of the preceding responses.

[14:21]  ³² tn Grk “being furious, said.” The participle ὀργισθείς (orgisqei") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[14:21]  ³³ sn It was necessary to go out quickly because the banquet was already prepared. All the food would spoil if not eaten immediately.

[14:21]  ³⁴ tn Or “town.”

[14:21]  ³⁵ sn The poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame. Note how the list matches v. 13, illustrating that point. Note also how the party goes on; it is not postponed until a later date. Instead new guests are invited.

[14:21]  ³⁶ tn Grk “and the crippled.” Normally crippled as a result of being maimed or mutilated (L&N 23.177). Καί (kai) has not been translated here and before the following category (Grk “and the blind and the lame”) since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.
