Footnotes

  1. 86 Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” since vv. 37–38 serve as something of a summary or transition from the discourse preceding to the passion narrative that follows.
  2. 87 Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  3. 88 Grk “in the temple.”
  4. 89 Grk “and spent the night,” but this is redundant because of the previous use of the word “night.”
  5. 90 Grk “at the mountain called ‘of Olives.’ ” See the note on the phrase Mount of Olives in .
  6. 91 Jesus’ teaching was still quite popular with all the people at this point despite the leaders’ opposition.
  7. 92 Some (those of f13) place John 7:53–8:11 here after v. 38, no doubt because it was felt that this was a better setting for the pericope. Grk “in the temple.”
