¹ tc The majority of later witnesses (C² D L Z 33 Ï) have “behind me” (ὀπίσω μου; opisw mou) after “Go away.” But since this is the wording in Matt 16:23, where the text is certain, scribes most likely added the words here to conform to the later passage. Further, the shorter reading has superior support (א B C*^vid K P W Δ 0233 Ë^1,13 565 579* 700 al). Thus, both externally and internally, the shorter reading is strongly preferred.

² sn A quotation from Deut 6:13. The word “only” is an interpretive expansion not found in either the Hebrew or Greek (LXX) text of the OT.

³ tn Grk “is temporary.”

⁴ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “Then.”

⁶ tn Grk “asked him, saying.” The participle λέγοντες (legontes) is redundant here in contemporary English and has not been translated.

⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

⁸ sn The Jerusalem temple was widely admired around the world. See Josephus, Ant. 15.11 [15.380-425]; J. W. 5.5 [5.184-227] and Tacitus, History 5.8, who called it “immensely opulent.” Josephus compared it to a beautiful snowcapped mountain.

⁹ sn Like the flood that came and took them all away, the coming judgment associated with the Son of Man will condemn many.

¹⁰ tn Grk “So also will be the coming of the Son of Man.”

¹¹ tn Grk “traded with them.”

¹² tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

¹³ tn Grk “your speech.”

¹⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

¹⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

¹⁶ tn Or “the angel of the Lord.” See the note on the word “Lord” in 1:20.
