Yohanes 6:26

6:26 Jesus replied, ¹  “I tell you the solemn truth, ²  you are looking for me not because you saw miraculous signs, but because you ate all the loaves of bread you wanted. ³ 

Yohanes 6:58

6:58 This ⁴  is the bread that came down from heaven; it is not like the bread your ancestors ⁵  ate, but then later died. ⁶  The one who eats ⁷  this bread will live forever.”

Yohanes 9:22

9:22 (His parents said these things because they were afraid of the Jewish religious leaders. ⁸  For the Jewish leaders had already agreed that anyone who confessed Jesus ⁹  to be the Christ ¹⁰  would be put out ¹¹  of the synagogue. ¹² 

Yohanes 10:33

10:33 The Jewish leaders ¹³  replied, ¹⁴  “We are not going to stone you for a good deed ¹⁵  but for blasphemy, ¹⁶  because ¹⁷  you, a man, are claiming to be God.” ¹⁸ 

Yohanes 11:32

11:32 Now when Mary came to the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”

Yohanes 11:42

11:42 I knew that you always listen to me, ¹⁹  but I said this ²⁰  for the sake of the crowd standing around here, that they may believe that you sent me.”

[6:26]  ¹ tn Grk “answered and said to them.”

[6:26]  ² tn Grk “Truly, truly, I say to you.”

[6:26]  ³ tn Grk “because you ate of the loaves of bread and were filled.”

[6:58]  ⁴ tn Or “This one.”

[6:58]  ⁵ tn Or “forefathers”; Grk “fathers.”

[6:58]  ⁶ tn Grk “This is the bread that came down from heaven, not just like your ancestors ate and died.” The cryptic Greek expression has been filled out in the translation for clarity.

[6:58]  ⁷ tn Or “who chews.” On the alternation between ἐσθίω (esqiw, “eat,” v. 53) and τρώγω (trwgw, “eats,” vv. 54, 56, 58; “consumes,” v. 57) see the note on “eats” in v. 54.

[9:22]  ⁸ tn Or “the Jewish religious authorities”; Grk “the Jews.” Twice in this verse the phrase refers to the Pharisees, mentioned by name in John 9:13, 15, 16. The second occurrence is shortened to “the Jewish leaders” for stylistic reasons. See the note on the phrase “the Jewish religious leaders” in v. 18.

[9:22]  ⁹ tn Grk “confessed him.”

[9:22]  ¹⁰ tn Or “the Messiah” (Both Greek “Christ” and Hebrew and Aramaic “Messiah” mean “one who has been anointed”).

[9:22]  sn See the note on Christ in 1:20.

[9:22]  ¹¹ tn Or “would be expelled from.”

[9:22]  ¹² sn This reference to excommunication from the Jewish synagogue for those who had made some sort of confession about Jesus being the Messiah is dismissed as anachronistic by some (e.g., Barrett) and nonhistorical by others. In later Jewish practice there were at least two forms of excommunication: a temporary ban for thirty days, and a permanent ban. But whether these applied in NT times is far from certain. There is no substantial evidence for a formal ban on Christians until later than this Gospel could possibly have been written. This may be a reference to some form of excommunication adopted as a contingency to deal with those who were proclaiming Jesus to be the Messiah. If so, there is no other record of the procedure than here. It was probably local, limited to the area around Jerusalem. See also the note on synagogue in 6:59.

[10:33]  ¹³ tn Or “the Jewish authorities”; Grk “the Jews.” Here again the phrase refers to the Jewish leaders. See the notes on the phrase “Jewish people” in v. 19 and “Jewish leaders” in vv. 24, 31.

[10:33]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “answered him.”

[10:33]  ¹⁵ tn Or “good work.”

[10:33]  ¹⁶ sn This is the first time the official charge of blasphemy is voiced openly in the Fourth Gospel (although it was implicit in John 8:59).

[10:33]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “and because.”

[10:33]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “you, a man, make yourself to be God.”

[11:42]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “that you always hear me.”

[11:42]  ²⁰ tn The word “this” is not in the Greek text. Direct objects in Greek were often omitted when clear from the context.
