[45:10]  1 tn Heb “daughter.” The Hebrew noun בת (“daughter”) can sometimes refer to a young woman in a general sense (see H. Haag, TDOT 2:334).

[45:10]  2 tn Heb “see and turn your ear.” The verb רָאָה (raah, “see”) is used here of mental observation.

[45:10]  3 tn Heb “your people.” This reference to the “people” of the princess suggests she was a foreigner. Perhaps the marriage was arranged as part of a political alliance between Israel (or Judah) and a neighboring state. The translation “your homeland” reflects such a situation.

[45:10]  4 tn Heb “and the house of your father.”

[5:11]  5 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the result of Jesus’ pronouncement.

[5:11]  6 sn The expression left everything and followed him pictures discipleship, which means that to learn from Jesus is to follow him as the guiding priority of one’s life.

[5:23]  7 sn Which is easier is a reflective kind of question. On the one hand to declare sins are forgiven is easier, since one does not need to see it, unlike telling a paralyzed person to walk. On the other hand, it is harder, because for it to be true one must possess the authority to forgive the sin.

[14:33]  8 tn Grk “Likewise therefore every one of you who does not renounce all his own possessions cannot be my disciple.” The complex double negation is potentially confusing to the modern reader and has been simplified in the translation. See L&N 57.70.

[18:29]  9 tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[18:29]  10 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[18:29]  11 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

[18:29]  12 tn The term “brothers” could be understood as generic here, referring to either male or female siblings. However, it is noteworthy that in the parallel passages in both Matt 19:29 and Mark 10:29, “sisters” are explicitly mentioned in the Greek text.

[18:30]  13 sn Jesus reassures his disciples with a promise that (1) much benefit in this life (many times more) and (2) eternal life in the age to come will be given.

[18:30]  14 tn Grk “this time” (καιρός, kairos), but for stylistic reasons this has been translated “this age” here.

[18:30]  15 sn Note that Luke (see also Matt 19:29; Mark 10:30; Luke 10:25) portrays eternal life as something one receives in the age to come, unlike John, who emphasizes the possibility of receiving eternal life in the present (John 5:24).

[11:9]  16 tn Or “settled as a resident alien.”

[11:9]  17 tn Or “heirs with him.”

[11:26]  18 tn Grk “the abuse [or ‘reproach’] of Christ.”

[11:26]  19 tn Grk “he was looking away to.”
