Footnotes
- 26 Grk “And he.” Because of the length of the Greek sentence, the conjunction καί (kai) has not been translated here. Instead a new English sentence is begun.
- 27 Or “the sky” (the same Greek word means both “heaven” and “sky”).
- 28 On the heavens “opening,” see Matt 3:16; Luke 3:21; Rev 19:11 (cf. ἀνοίγω 2). This is the language of a vision or a revelatory act of God.
- 29 Or “a large linen cloth” (the term was used for the sail of a ship; ὀθόνη).
- 30 Or “coming down.”
- 31 Or “to the ground.”
