NET Notes

¹tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity and to conform with contemporary English style.

²tn Grk “And Martha.” The connective καί (kai, “and”) has been omitted in the translation because it would produce a run-on sentence in English.

³tn Grk “reclining at the table.”

³sn 1st century middle eastern meals were not eaten while sitting at a table, but while reclining on one’s side on the floor with the head closest to the low table and the feet farthest away.
