¹ tn Grk “And it happened when.” The introductory phrase καὶ ἐγένετο (kai egeneto, “it happened that”) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

² tc ‡ Although most witnesses (B C L W ˹³ 33 Ï f sy^s,p,h mae) read “women and children” instead of “children and women,” it is likely that the majority’s reading is a harmonization to Matt 14:21. “Children and women” is found in early and geographically widespread witnesses (e.g., א D [Θ Ë¹] 579 lat sy^c sa bo), and has more compelling internal arguments on its side, suggesting that this is the original reading. NA²⁷, however, agrees with the majority of witnesses.

³ tn Grk “And those eating were four thousand men, apart from children and women.”

⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

⁵ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

⁶ sn The assumption is that the rich are blessed, so if they risk exclusion, who is left to be saved?

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

⁸ tn Grk “the ten.”

⁹ tn The word “this” is not in the Greek text, but is supplied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

¹⁰ map For location see Map1-D3; Map2-C2; Map3-D5; Map4-C1; Map5-G3.

¹¹ tn Grk “they were amazed; they marveled.”

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

¹³ sn Matthew’s wording suggests that both of the criminals spoke abusively to him. If so, one of them quickly changed his attitude toward Jesus (see Luke 23:40-43).

¹⁴ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
