NET Notes

¹tn Grk “And though.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

²tn The participle εὑρόντες (Jeuronte") has been translated as a concessive adverbial participle.

³sn No basis. Luke insists on Jesus’ innocence again and again in Luke 23:1-25.

⁴tn Grk “no basis for death,” but in this context a sentence of death is clearly indicated.
