Matthew 28:15
Context28:15 So they took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story is told among the Jews to this day. 4
[20:6] 1 tn Grk “about the eleventh hour.”
[26:65] 2 tn Grk “the high priest tore his clothes, saying.”
[26:65] 3 tn Grk “Behold now.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).
[28:15] 3 tc ‡ The word ἡμέρας (Jhmeras, “day”) is found after σήμερον (shmeron, “today, this [day]”) in some early and important witnesses (B D L Θ lat), but may be a clarifying (or perhaps redundant) note. The shorter reading (found in א A W 0148vid Ë1,13 33 Ï) is thus preferred. NA27 includes the word in brackets, indicating reservations about its authenticity.
