[7:6]  1 tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the resultative action.

[7:6]  2 tn The participle ἀπέχοντος (apeconto") has been taken temporally.

[7:6]  3 sn See the note on the word centurion in 7:2.

[7:6]  4 tn Or “do not be bothered.”

[7:6]  5 sn Note the humility in the centurion’s statement I am not worthy in light of what others think (as v. 4 notes). See Luke 5:8 for a similar example of humility.

[6:17]  6 tn Paul is probably referring to scars from wounds received in the service of Jesus, although the term στίγμα (stigma) may imply ownership and suggest these scars served as brands (L&N 8.55; 33.481; 90.84).
