Footnotes

  1. 105 Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Jesus is best taken as the subject of εὑρίσκει (heuriskei), since Peter would scarcely have wanted to go to Galilee.
  2. 106 No explanation is given for why Jesus wanted to set out for Galilee, but probably he wanted to go to the wedding at Cana (about a two day trip).
  3. 107 Grk “and he.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
  4. 108 Grk “and Jesus said.”
