Footnotes

  1. 137 Grk “And answering, Jesus said.” This is redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified to “Jesus answered.” Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
  2. 138 Grk “O.” The marker of direct address, ὦ (ō), is functionally equivalent to a vocative and is represented in the translation by “you.”
  3. 139 Or “faithless.” The rebuke for lack of faith has OT roots: Num 14:27; Deut 32:5, 30; Isa 59:8.
  4. 140 Grk “how long.”
  5. 141 Or “and put up with.” See Num 11:12; Isa 46:4.
  6. 142 The pronouns you … you are plural, indicating that Jesus is speaking to a group rather than an individual.
