[3:6]  ¹ tn Grk “they were being baptized by him.” The passive construction has been rendered as active in the translation for the sake of English style.

[13:53]  ² tn Grk “Now it happened that when.” The introductory phrase καὶ ἐγένετο (kai egeneto, “it happened that”) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[23:6]  ³ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[23:6]  ⁴ sn See the note on synagogues in 4:23.

[25:3]  ⁴ tn Grk “For when.” Here γάρ (gar) has not been translated.

[25:3]  ⁵ tn The word “extra” is not in the Greek text but is implied. The point is that the five foolish virgins had only the oil in their lamps, but took along no extra supply from which to replenish them. This is clear from v. 8, where the lamps of the foolish virgins are going out because they are running out of oil.

[25:3]  ⁶ tn On the use of olive oil in lamps, see L&N 6.202.

[27:39]  ⁵ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
