Footnotes

  1. 126 Grk “And behold.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the somewhat unexpected appearance of the man. The Greek word ἰδού (idou) at the beginning of this statement has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis ( 1).
  2. 127 Grk “cried out, saying.” The participle λέγων (legōn) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.
  3. 128 This verb means “to have regard for”; see Luke 1:48.
