[3:33]  ¹ tn Grk “Who is my mother and my brothers?” The use of the singular verb ἐστιν (estin) here singles out Mary above Jesus’ brothers, giving her special prominence (see ExSyn 401-2). This is slightly unnatural in English since the predicate nominative is plural, though, so a plural verb was used in the translation.

[9:6]  ² sn This is a parenthetical note by the author.

[10:3]  ³ tn Grk “But answering, he said to them.”

[10:26]  ⁴ tn Grk “But they were even more astonished, saying.” The participle λέγονες (legontes) has been translated here as a finite verb to emphasize the sequence of events: The disciples were astonished, then they spoke.

[10:26]  ⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of thought.

[10:26]  ⁶ sn The assumption is that the rich are blessed, so if they risk exclusion, who is left to be saved?
