Yohanes 17:23

[2:9]  ¹ tn Heb “I will wave my hand over them” (so NASB); NIV, NRSV “raise my hand against them.”

[33:33]  ² tn Heb “behold it is coming.”

[17:21]  ³ tn The words “I pray” are repeated from the first part of v. 20 for clarity.

[17:23]  ⁴ tn Or “completely unified.”

[17:25]  ⁵ tn The word “men” is not in the Greek text but is implied. The translation uses the word “men” here rather than a more general term like “people” because the use of the aorist verb ἔγνωσαν (egnwsan) implies that Jesus is referring to the disciples present with him as he spoke these words (presumably all of them men in the historical context), rather than to those who are yet to believe because of their testimony (see John 17:20).
