| NET Notes |
1 tn Or “the Messiah” (Both Greek “Christ” and Hebrew and Aramaic “Messiah” mean “one who has been anointed”). 1 sn See the note on Christ in 1:20. 2 tn An initial negative reply (“No”) is suggested by the causal or explanatory γάρ (gar) which begins the clause. 3 tn Questions prefaced with μή (mh) in Greek anticipate a negative answer. This can sometimes be indicated by using a “tag” at the end in English (here the tag is “does he?”). |
