Footnotes

  1. 56 Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
  2. 57 Grk “away, behold, they brought a man to him.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis ( 1).
  3. 58 See the note on Pharisees in .
  4. 59 Or “prince.”
  5. 60 Although codex Cantabrigiensis (D), along with a few other Western versional and patristic witnesses, lacks this verse, virtually all other witnesses have it. The Western text’s reputation for free alterations as well as the heightened climax if v. 33 concludes this pericope explains why these witnesses omitted the verse.

Now as they were going away, behold, they brought to him a demon-possessed man who was unable to speak.
