  2. 100 See the note on the name Mount of Olives in v. .
  3. 101 Grk “the”; the Greek article has been translated here as a possessive pronoun ( ).
  4. 102 Here the participle χαίροντες (chairontes) has been translated as a finite verb in English; it could also be translated adverbially as a participle of manner: “began to praise God joyfully.”
