Matius 17:15

17:15 and said, “Lord, have mercy on my son, because he has seizures ²  and suffers terribly, for he often falls into the fire and into the water.

Matius 25:27

Matius 26:42

26:42 He went away a second time and prayed, ⁵  “My Father, if this cup ⁶  cannot be taken away unless I drink it, your will must be done.”

[15:12]  ¹ sn See the note on Pharisees in 3:7.

[17:15]  ² tn Grk “he is moonstruck,” possibly meaning “lunatic” (so NAB, NASB), although now the term is generally regarded as referring to some sort of seizure disorder such as epilepsy (L&N 23.169; BDAG 919 s.v. σεληνιάζομαι).

[25:27]  ³ tn For the translation “deposited my money with the bankers,” see L&N 57.216.

[25:27]  ⁴ sn That is, “If you really feared me you should have done a minimum to get what I asked for.”

[26:42]  ⁵ tn Grk “saying.” The participle λέγων (legwn) is redundant here in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[26:42]  ⁶ tn Grk “this”; the referent (the cup) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
