Matius 4:11

4:11 Then the devil left him, and angels ¹  came and began ministering to his needs.

Matius 8:23

Stilling of a Storm

8:23 As he got into the boat, his disciples followed him. ² 

Matius 12:14

12:14 But the Pharisees went out and plotted against him, as to how they could assassinate ³  him.

Matius 22:35

22:35 And one of them, an expert in religious law, ⁴  asked him a question to test ⁵  him:

Matius 26:20

26:20 When ⁶  it was evening, he took his place at the table ⁷  with the twelve. ⁸ 

[4:11]  ¹ tn Grk “and behold, angels.” 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).

[8:23]  ² sn A boat that held all the disciples would be of significant size.

[12:14]  ³ tn Grk “destroy.”

[22:35]  ⁴ tn Traditionally, “a lawyer.” This was an expert in the interpretation of the Mosaic law.

[22:35]  ⁵ tn Grk “testing.” The participle, however, is telic in force.

[26:20]  ⁶ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[26:20]  ⁷ tn Grk “he was reclining at table,” as 1st century middle eastern meals were not eaten while sitting at a table, but while reclining on one’s side on the floor with the head closest to the low table and the feet farthest away.

[26:20]  ⁸ tc Many witnesses, some of them important, have μαθητῶν (maqhtwn, “disciples”; א A L W Δ Θ 33 892 1241 1424 pm lat) or μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ (maqhtwn autou, “his disciples”; 0281 pc it) after δώδεκα (dwdeka, “twelve”). However, such clarifications are typical scribal expansions to the text. Further, the shorter reading (the one that ends with δώδεκα) has strong support in Ì^37vid,45vid B D K Γ Ë^1,13 565 579 700 pm. Thus both internally and externally the reading that ends the verse with “the twelve” is to be preferred.
