1 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
2 tn Grk “or do according to his will”; the referent (the master) has been specified in the translation for clarity. This example deals with the slave who knew what the command was and yet failed to complete it.
3 sn Some apparently regretted what had taken place. Beating their breasts was a sign of lamentation.
