Markus 2:13

The Call of Levi; Eating with Sinners

2:13 Jesus ¹  went out again by the sea. The whole crowd came to him, and he taught them.

Markus 3:1

Healing a Withered Hand

3:1 Then ²  Jesus ³  entered the synagogue ⁴  again, and a man was there who had a withered ⁵  hand.

Markus 3:20

Jesus and Beelzebul

3:20 Now ⁶  Jesus ⁷  went home, and a crowd gathered so that they were not able to eat.

Markus 15:2

15:2 So ⁸  Pilate asked him, “Are you the king ⁹  of the Jews?” He replied, ¹⁰  “You say so.” ¹¹ 

[2:13]  ¹ tn Grk “He”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[3:1]  ² tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[3:1]  ³ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[3:1]  ⁴ sn See the note on synagogue in 1:21.

[3:1]  ⁵ sn Withered means the man’s hand was shrunken and paralyzed.

[3:20]  ⁶ tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

[3:20]  ⁷ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[15:2]  ⁸ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of previous action in the narrative.

[15:2]  ⁹ sn “Are you the king of the Jews?” Pilate was interested in this charge because of its political implications of sedition against Rome.

[15:2]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “answering, he said to him.” The participle ἀποκριθείς (apokriqeis) is redundant, but the syntax of the phrase has been modified for clarity.

[15:2]  ¹¹ sn The reply “You say so” is somewhat enigmatic, like Jesus’ earlier reply to the Jewish leadership (mentioned in Matt 26:64 and Luke 22:70).
