[7:22]  ¹ tn Grk “and in your name do.” This phrase was not repeated here in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[7:3]  ⁶ tn Or “do not notice.”

[7:3]  ⁷ sn The term beam of wood refers to a very big piece of wood, the main beam of a building, in contrast to the speck in the other’s eye (L&N 7.78).
