Footnotes
- 78 Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the consequential nature of the action.
- 79 Grk “he”; the referent (Simeon) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- 80 Grk “So in the Spirit” or “So by the Spirit,” but since it refers to the Spirit’s direction the expanded translation “directed by the Spirit” is used here.
- 81 Grk “the temple.” The temple courts is a reference to the larger temple area, not the holy place. Simeon was either in the court of the Gentiles or the court of women, since Mary was present.
- 82 Grk “to do for him according to the custom of the law.” See Luke 2:22–24.
