Markus 15:35

15:35 When some of the bystanders heard it they said, “Listen, he is calling for Elijah!” ¹ 

Markus 14:47

14:47 One of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the high priest’s slave, ²  cutting off his ear.

[15:35]  ¹ sn Perhaps the crowd thought Jesus was calling for Elijah because the exclamation “my God, my God” (i.e., in Aramaic, Eloi, Eloi) sounds like the name Elijah.

[14:47]  ² tn See the note on the word “slave” in 10:44.
