Parables on the Kingdom of Heaven

[21:22]  ¹ tn Grk “believing”; the participle here is conditional.

[18:18]  ² tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

[7:12]  ³ tn Grk “Therefore in.” Here οὖν (oun) has not been translated.

[7:12]  ⁴ tn This is a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo"), referring to both males and females.

[7:12]  ⁵ sn Jesus’ teaching as reflected in the phrase treat others as you would want them to treat you, known generally as the Golden Rule, is not completely unique in the ancient world, but here it is stated in its most emphatic, selfless form.

[7:12]  ⁶ tn Grk “is.”

[18:25]  ⁴ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[18:25]  ⁵ 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.

[18:25]  ⁶ tn Grk “and his wife.”

[23:3]  ⁵ tn Grk “for they say and do not do.”

[28:20]  ⁶ tn The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has been translated here as “remember” (BDAG 468 s.v. 1.c).

[28:20]  ⁷ sn I am with you. Matthew’s Gospel begins with the prophecy that the Savior’s name would be “Emmanuel, that is, ‘God with us,’” (1:23, in which the author has linked Isa 7:14 and 8:8, 10 together) and it ends with Jesus’ promise to be with his disciples forever. The Gospel of Matthew thus forms an inclusio about Jesus in his relationship to his people that suggests his deity.

[28:20]  ⁸ tc Most mss (A^c Θ Ë¹³ Ï it sy) have ἀμήν (amhn, “amen”) at the end of v. 20. Such a conclusion is routinely added by scribes to NT books because a few of these books originally had such an ending (cf. Rom 16:27; Gal 6:18; Jude 25). A majority of Greek witnesses have the concluding ἀμήν in every NT book except Acts, James, and 3 John (and even in these books, ἀμήν is found in some witnesses). It is thus a predictable variant. Further, no good reason exists for the omission of the particle in significant and early witnesses such as א A* B D W ˹ 33 al lat sa.

[17:12]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.
