[8:6]  1 sn The rock in Palestine would be a limestone base lying right under the soil.

[9:3]  2 tn Grk “And he.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:3]  3 tn Grk “the”; in context the article is used as a possessive pronoun (ExSyn 215).

[9:3]  4 sn Mark 6:8 allows one staff. It might be that Luke’s summary (cf. Matt 10:9-10) means not taking an extra staff or that the expression is merely rhetorical for “traveling light” which has been rendered in two slightly different ways.

[9:3]  5 tn Or “no traveler’s bag”; or possibly “no beggar’s bag” (L&N 6.145; BDAG 811 s.v. πήρα).

[9:3]  6 tn Grk “have two tunics.” See the note on the word “tunics” in 3:11.

[8:18]  3 tn Or “Therefore pay close attention”; Grk “Take heed therefore how you hear.”

[8:18]  4 tn Grk “and.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[8:18]  5 sn The phrase what he thinks he has is important, because it is not what a person thinks he has that is important but whether he actually has something or not. Jesus describes the person who does not heed his word as having nothing. The person who has nothing loses even that which he thought was something but was not. In other words, he has absolutely nothing at all. Jesus’ teaching must be taken seriously.
