Context3:16 For which ones heard and rebelled? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under Moses’ leadership? 32 3:17 And against whom was God 33 provoked for forty years?

[6:30] 1 tn Grk “grass of the field.”
[6:30] 2 tn Grk “into the oven.” The expanded translation “into the fire to heat the oven” has been used to avoid misunderstanding; most items put into modern ovens are put there to be baked, not burned.
[6:30] 3 sn The phrase even more is a typical form of rabbinic argumentation, from the lesser to the greater. If God cares for the little things, surely he will care for the more important things.
[8:26] 4 tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.
[8:26] 5 tn Or “commanded” (often with the implication of a threat, L&N 33.331).
[8:26] 6 sn Who has authority over the seas and winds is discussed in the OT: Ps 104:3; 135:7; 107:23-30. When Jesus rebuked the winds and the sea he was making a statement about who he was.
[16:8] 7 tn Or “becoming aware of it.”
[16:8] 8 tn Grk “Those of little faith.”
[9:19] 10 tn Grk “And answering, he said to them.” The participle ἀποκριθείς (apokriqeis) is redundant, but the phrasing of the sentence was modified slightly to make it clearer in English.
[9:19] 11 tn Grk “O.” The marker of direct address, ὦ (w), is functionally equivalent to a vocative and is represented in the translation by “you.”
[9:19] 14 tn Or “put up with.” See Num 11:12; Isa 46:4.
[9:19] 15 sn The pronouns you…you are plural, indicating that Jesus is speaking to a group rather than an individual.
[9:41] 16 tn Grk “And answering, Jesus said.” This is redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified to “Jesus answered.” Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
[9:41] 17 tn Grk “O.” The marker of direct address, ὦ (w), is functionally equivalent to a vocative and is represented in the translation by “you.”
[9:41] 20 tn Or “and put up with.” See Num 11:12; Isa 46:4.
[9:41] 21 sn The pronouns you…you are plural, indicating that Jesus is speaking to a group rather than an individual.
[24:25] 22 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the disciples’ inability to believe in Jesus’ resurrection.
[24:25] 23 tn Grk “O,” an interjection used both in address and emotion (BDAG 1101 s.v. 1).
[24:25] 24 tn The word “people” is not in the Greek text, but is supplied to complete the interjection.
[24:25] 25 sn The rebuke is for failure to believe the promise of scripture, a theme that will appear in vv. 43-47 as well.
[24:25] 26 tn On the syntax of this infinitival construction, see BDAG 364-65 s.v. ἐπί 6.b.
[20:27] 27 tn Or “Extend” or “Reach out.” The translation “put” or “reach out” for φέρω (ferw) here is given in BDAG 1052 s.v. 4.
[20:27] 28 tn Grk “see.” The Greek verb ἴδε (ide) is often used like its cognate ἰδού (idou) in Hellenistic Greek (which is “used to emphasize the …importance of someth.” [BDAG 468 s.v. ἰδού 1.b.ε]).
[20:27] 29 tn Or “reach out” or “put.”
[20:27] 30 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.
[20:27] 31 tn Grk “and do not be unbelieving, but believing.”
[3:16] 32 tn Grk “through Moses.”
[3:17] 33 tn Grk “he”; in the translation the referent (God) has been specified for clarity.
