Footnotes

  1. 13 Grk “he”; the referent (the landowner) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. 14 Grk “And answering, he said to one of them.” This construction is somewhat redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified in the translation.
  3. 15 Grk “for a denarius a day.”
