[15:32] 1 tc ‡ Although the external evidence is not great (א W Θ 700 pc), the internal evidence for the omission of αὐτοῦ (autou, “his”) after “disciples” is fairly strong. The pronoun may have been added by way of clarification. NA27, however, includes the pronoun, on the basis of the much stronger external evidence.
[21:19] 2 tn Grk “one fig tree.”
[21:21] 3 tn Grk “And answering, Jesus said.” This is somewhat redundant and has been simplified in the translation.
