[8:6]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[8:6]  ² tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of previous action(s) in the narrative.

[11:6]  ¹ tn Grk “they”; the referent (the people mentioned in v. 5) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[6:48]  ¹ tn This verse is one complete sentence in the Greek text, but it has been broken into two sentences in English for clarity.

[6:48]  ² tn Grk “about the fourth watch of the night,” between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m.

[6:48]  ³ tn Or “on the lake.”

[6:48]  ⁴ tn The καί (kai) was translated so as to introduce a subordinate clause, i.e., with the use of “for.” See BDF §442.9.

[6:48]  ⁵ sn The statement he wanted to pass by them is somewhat difficult to understand. There are at least two common interpretations: (1) it refers to the perspective of the disciples, that is, from their point of view it seemed that Jesus wanted to pass by them; or (2) it refers to a theophany and uses the language of the Greek Old Testament (LXX) when God “passed by” Moses at Sinai (cf. Exod 33:19, 22). According to the latter alternative, Jesus is “passing by” the disciples during their struggle, in order to assure them of his presence with them. See W L. Lane, Mark (NICNT), 236.

[1:45]  ¹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (the man who was healed) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[1:45]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[1:45]  ³ tn Grk “and”; καί (kai) often has a mildly contrastive force, as here.

[1:45]  ⁴ tn The imperfect verb has been translated iteratively.
