[5:25]  ¹ tn Grk “Make friends.”

[5:25]  ² tn The words “to court” are not in the Greek text but are implied.

[5:25]  ³ tn Grk “the accuser.”

[6:5]  ⁴ sn See the note on synagogues in 4:23.

[13:30]  ⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

[13:30]  ⁶ tn Grk “but.”

[13:30]  ⁷ tn Grk “burned, but gather.”

[21:23]  ⁸ tn Grk “he.”

[21:23]  ⁹ tn Grk “the temple.”

[21:23]  ¹⁰ tn On this phrase, see BDAG 844 s.v. ποῖος 2.a.γ.1

[24:3]  ¹¹ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[24:3]  ¹² sn Because the phrase these things is plural, more than the temple’s destruction is in view. The question may presuppose that such a catastrophe signals the end.
