[5:20]  ² sn The Decapolis refers to a league of towns (originally consisting of ten; the Greek name literally means “ten towns”) whose region (except for Scythopolis) lay across the Jordan River.

[5:20]  ³ sn Note that the man could not separate what God had done from the one through whom God had done it (what Jesus had done for him). This man was called to witness to God’s goodness at home.

[9:20]  ⁵ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[10:51]  ⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[10:51]  ⁷ tn Grk “And answering, Jesus said to him.” The participle ἀποκριθείς is redundant and has not been translated.

[14:65]  ¹¹ tn For the translation of ῥάπισμα (rJapisma), see L&N 19.4.
