[14:13]  ¹ tn The word “it” is not in the Greek text but is implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[14:13]  ² tn Or “cities.”

[14:15]  ³ tn Or “a desert” (meaning a deserted or desolate area with sparse vegetation).

[21:15]  ⁴ tn Or “and the scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 2:4.

[21:15]  ⁵ tn Grk “crying out in the temple [courts] and saying.” The participle λέγοντας (legontas) is somewhat redundant here in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[21:23]  ⁶ tn Grk “he.”

[21:23]  ⁷ tn Grk “the temple.”

[21:23]  ⁸ tn On this phrase, see BDAG 844 s.v. ποῖος 2.a.γ.1

[26:47]  ⁹ tn Grk “behold, Judas.” 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).
