Footnotes
- 67 Grk “And they.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
- 68 Grk “And answering, they said.” This is redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified to “They answered.”
- 69 The appearance of Elijah would mean that the end time had come. According to 2 Kgs 2:11, Elijah was still alive. In Mal 4:5 it is said that Elijah would be the precursor of Messiah.
- 70 The phrase has risen could be understood to mean “has been resurrected,” but this is only a possible option, not a necessary one, since the phrase could merely mean that a figure had appeared on the scene who mirrored an earlier historical figure. Note that the three categories in the reply match the ones in Luke 9:7–8.
- 71 Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
- 72 Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
- 73 Grk “Peter answering, said.” This is redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified to “Peter answered.”
- 74 Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.” See the note on Christ in .
