Matius 28:16

The Great Commission

28:16 So ³  the eleven disciples went to Galilee to the mountain Jesus had designated.

[28:9]  ¹ tn Grk “And behold.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate that the return of the women from the tomb was interrupted by this appearance of Jesus. The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).

[28:9]  ² tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[28:16]  ³ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of Jesus’ instructions in v. 10.
