[4:14]  ¹ tn The redundant participle λέγοντος (legontos) has not been translated here.

[12:17]  ² tn Grk “so that what was said by Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled, saying.” This final clause, however, is part of one sentence in Greek (vv. 15b-17) and is thus not related only to v. 16. The participle λέγοντος (legontos) is redundant and has not been translated.

[8:17]  ³ tn Grk “was fulfilled, saying.” The participle λέγοντος (legontos) is redundant and has not been translated.

[8:17]  ⁴ sn A quotation from Isa 53:4.

[3:3]  ⁴ tn Grk “was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying.” The participle λέγοντος (legonto") is redundant and has not been translated. The passive construction has also been rendered as active in the translation for the sake of English style.

[3:3]  ⁵ tn Or “A voice.”

[3:3]  ⁶ sn This call to “make paths straight” in this context is probably an allusion to preparation through repentance.

[3:3]  ⁷ sn A quotation from Isa 40:3.

[13:14]  ⁵ tn Grk “with hearing,” a cognate dative that intensifies the action of the main verb “you will listen” (ExSyn 168-69).

[13:14]  ⁶ tn Grk “look by looking.” The participle is redundant, functioning to intensify the force of the main verb.
