Footnotes

  1. 48 Grk “hears you”; but as the context of vv. 8–9 makes clear, it is response that is the point. In contemporary English, “listen to” is one way to express this function (L&N 31.56).
  2. 49 Jesus linked himself to the disciples’ message: Responding to the disciples (listens to you) counts as responding to him.
  3. 50 The double mention of rejection in this clause—ἀθετῶν ἀθετεῖ (athetōn athetei) in the Greek text—keeps up the emphasis of the section.
  4. 51 The one who sent me refers to God.
