NET Notes

¹tn Grk “so that I may not be.”

²tn Or “delivered over.”

³tn Or “the Jewish leaders”; Grk “the Jews.” Here the phrase refers to the Jewish leaders, especially members of the Sanhedrin. See the note on the phrase “Jewish leaders” in v. 12. In the translation “authorities” was preferred over “leaders” for stylistic reasons.

⁴tn Grk “now.”
