[2:3]  ¹ sn See the note on King Herod in 2:1.

[4:12]  ² tn Grk “he.”

[4:12]  ³ tn Or “arrested,” “taken into custody” (see L&N 37.12).

[9:12]  ³ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[9:12]  ⁴ sn Jesus’ point is that he associates with those who are sick because they have the need and will respond to the offer of help. A person who is healthy (or who thinks mistakenly that he is) will not seek treatment.

[11:2]  ⁴ sn John refers to John the Baptist.

[11:2]  ⁵ tc The Western codex D and a few other mss (0233 1424 al) read “Jesus” here instead of “Christ.” This is not likely to be original because it is not found in the earliest and most important mss, nor in the rest of the ms tradition.

[11:2]  ⁶ tc Instead of “by his disciples” (see the tn below for the reading of the Greek), the majority of later mss (C³ L ˹ Ï lat bo) have “two of his disciples.” The difference in Greek, however, is only two letters: διὰ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ vs. δύο τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ (dia twn maqhtwn autou vs. duo twn maqhtwn autou). Although an accidental alteration could account for either of these readings, it is more likely that δύο is an assimilation to the parallel in Luke 7:18. Further, διά is read by a good number of early and excellent witnesses (א B C* D P W Z Δ Θ 0233 ˹³ 33 sa), and thus should be considered original.

[19:22]  ⁵ tn Grk “he had many possessions.” This term (κτῆμα, kthma) is often used for land as a possession.

[8:10]  ⁶ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[8:10]  ⁷ tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

[14:13]  ⁷ tn The word “it” is not in the Greek text but is implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[14:13]  ⁸ tn Or “cities.”

[2:22]  ⁸ sn Archelaus took after his father Herod the Great in terms of cruelty and ruthlessness, so Joseph was afraid to go there. After further direction in a dream, he went instead to Galilee.
