Footnotes

The translation “to become capable” for ἐνδυναμόω (endunamoō) is given in L&N 74.7, with this specific verse as an example.
- 49 Or “was confounding.” For the translation “to cause consternation” for συγχέω (suncheō) see L&N 25.221.
- 50 Or “by showing for certain.”
- 51 Grk “that this one”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
