Footnotes

  1. 49 Grk “And he.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
  2. 50 The word translated will turn is a good summary term for repentance and denotes John’s call to a change of direction (Luke 3:1–14).
  3. 51 Grk “sons”; but clearly this is a generic reference to people of both genders.
