Footnotes

  1. 93 Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
  2. 94 Grk “garments”; but this refers in context to their outer cloaks. The action is like 2 Kgs 9:13.
  3. 96 Although ἐπεβίβασαν (epebibasan) is frequently translated “set [Jesus] on it” or “put [Jesus] on it,” when used of a riding animal the verb can mean “to cause to mount” (L&N 15.98); thus here “had Jesus get on it.” The degree of assistance is not specified.
  4. 97 Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
  5. 98 The disciples initiated this action (since in 19:35 and 37 they are the subject) but the other gospels indicate the crowds also became involved. Thus it is difficult to specify the referent here as “the disciples” or “people.”
