John 18:17

Context
18:17 The girl 1  who was the doorkeeper said to Peter, “You’re not one of this man’s disciples too, are you?” 2  He replied, 3  “I am not.”

1 tn Grk “slave girl.” Since the descriptive term “slave girl” was introduced in the translation in the previous verse, it would be redundant to repeat the full expression here.

2 tn Questions prefaced with μή (mh) in Greek anticipate a negative answer. This can sometimes be indicated by using a “tag” at the end in English (here the tag is “are you?”).

3 tn Grk “He said.”
