[4:4]  ² sn Horeb is another name for Mount Sinai (cf. Exod 3:1).

[4:4]  ³ tn Heb “which I commanded him in Horeb concerning all Israel, statutes and ordinances.”

[1:17]  ⁴ tn “But” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied to indicate the implied contrast between the Mosaic law and grace through Jesus Christ. John 1:17 seems to indicate clearly that the Old Covenant (Sinai) was being contrasted with the New. In Jewish sources the Law was regarded as a gift from God (Josephus, Ant. 3.8.10 [3.223]; Pirqe Avot 1.1; Sifre Deut 31:4 §305). Further information can be found in T. F. Glasson, Moses in the Fourth Gospel (SBT).

[7:19]  ⁶ tn Grk “seek.”
