Footnotes

  1. 105 See the note on the word “nation” in the previous verse.
  2. 106 The author in his comment expands the prophecy to include the Gentiles (not for the Jewish nation only), a confirmation that the Fourth Gospel was directed, at least partly, to a Gentile audience. There are echoes of Pauline concepts here (particularly Eph 2:11–22) in the stress on the unity of Jew and Gentile.
  3. 107 Grk “that he might gather together.”
  4. 108 This is a parenthetical note by the author.
