Footnotes
- 31 Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
- 32 Grk “he”; the referent (the devil) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- 33 For location see ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; .
- 34 Grk “and stood him.”
- 35 The reference to the highest point of the temple probably refers to the one point on the temple’s southeast corner where the site looms directly over a cliff some 450 feet (135 m) high. However, some have suggested the reference could be to the temple’s high gate.
- 36 This is another first class condition, as in v. 3.
- 37 A quotation from Ps 91:11 by the devil. This was not so much an incorrect citation as a use in a wrong context (a misapplication of the passage).
