John 20:27

Context
20:27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put 1  your finger here, and examine 2  my hands. Extend 3  your hand and put it 4  into my side. Do not continue in your unbelief, but believe.” 5 

1 tn Or “Extend” or “Reach out.” The translation “put” or “reach out” for φέρω (ferw) here is given in BDAG 1052 s.v. 4.

2 tn Grk “see.” The Greek verb ἴδε (ide) is often used like its cognate ἰδού (idou) in Hellenistic Greek (which is “used to emphasize the …importance of someth.” [BDAG 468 s.v. ἰδού 1.b.ε]).

3 tn Or “reach out” or “put.”

4 tn The word “it” is not in the Greek text but is implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

5 tn Grk “and do not be unbelieving, but believing.”
