Footnotes

  1. 32 Grk “And,” but “now” better represents the somewhat parenthetical nature of this statement in the flow of the narrative.
  2. 33 Grk “all the multitude.” While “assembly” is sometimes used here to translate πλῆθος (plēthos), that term usually implies in English a specific or particular group of people. However, this was simply a large group gathered outside, which was not unusual, especially for the afternoon offering.
  3. 34 The “hour of the incense offering” is another way to refer to the time of sacrifice.
