[9:36]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:36]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the concluding summary of the account.

[9:36]  ³ 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]  ⁴ tn Grk “in those days.”

[16:23]  ⁵ sn The Greek term Hades stands for the Hebrew concept of Sheol. It is what is called hell today. This is where the dead were gathered (Ps 16:10; 86:13). In the NT Hades has an additional negative force of awaiting judgment (Rev 20:13).

[16:23]  ⁶ sn Hades is a place of torment, especially as one knows that he is separated from God.

[16:23]  ⁷ tn Grk “he lifted up his eyes” (an idiom).

[16:23]  ⁸ tn Grk “in his bosom,” the same phrase used in 16:22. This idiom refers to heaven and/or participation in the eschatological banquet. An appropriate modern equivalent is “at Abraham’s side.”

[23:49]  ⁹ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[23:49]  ¹⁰ tn Technically the participle ὁρῶσαι (Jorwsai) modifies only γυναῖκες (gunaike") since both are feminine plural nominative, although many modern translations refer this as well to the group of those who knew Jesus mentioned in the first part of the verse. These events had a wide array of witnesses.

[24:23]  ¹³ sn The men in dazzling attire mentioned in v. 4 are identified as angels here.
