[27:59]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[27:59]  ² tn The term σινδών (sindwn) can refer to a linen cloth used either for clothing or for burial.

[25:16]  ³ tn Grk “traded with them.”

[27:48]  ⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[27:48]  ⁶ sn Sour wine refers to cheap wine that was called in Latin posca, a cheap vinegar wine diluted heavily with water. It was the drink of slaves and soldiers, and was probably there for the soldiers who had performed the crucifixion.

[27:48]  ⁷ tn Grk “a reed.”

[13:31]  ⁷ tn Grk “put before.”

[13:31]  ⁸ tn Grk “He set before them another parable, saying.” The participle λέγων (legwn) is redundant and has not been translated.

[13:31]  ⁹ sn The mustard seed was noted for its tiny size.

[25:20]  ⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[25:20]  ¹⁰ tn Grk Or “Lord; or “Master” (and so throughout this paragraph).

[27:49]  ¹⁵ tc Early and important mss (א B C L Γ pc) have another sentence at the end of this verse: “And another [soldier] took a spear and pierced him in the side, and water and blood flowed out.” This comment finds such a strong parallel in John 19:34 that it was undoubtedly lifted from the Fourth Gospel by early, well-meaning scribes and inserted into Matt 27:49. Consequently, even though the support for the shorter reading (A D W Θ Ë^1,13 33 Ï lat sy sa bo) is not nearly as impressive, internal considerations on its behalf are compelling.

[14:19]  ¹⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “Then.”

[14:19]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “And after instructing the crowds to recline for a meal on the grass, after taking the five loaves and the two fish, after looking up to heaven, he gave thanks, and after breaking the loaves he gave them to the disciples.” Although most of the participles are undoubtedly attendant circumstance, there are but two indicative verbs – “he gave thanks” and “he gave.” The structure of the sentence thus seems to focus on these two actions and has been translated accordingly.

[14:19]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “to the disciples, and the disciples to the crowds.”

[17:27]  ¹⁹ sn The four drachma coin was a stater (στατήρ, stathr), a silver coin worth four drachmas. One drachma was equivalent to one denarius, the standard pay for a day’s labor (L&N 6.80).
