1 sn This is a parenthetical comment by the author.
2 tn Grk “And he said to them.”
3 tn Grk “Because for this purpose I have come forth.”
4 tn Grk “be,” that is, “remain.” In this context that would involve accompanying Jesus as he went on his way.
5 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
6 tn Or “into the latrine.”
7 sn This is a parenthetical note by the author.
8 tn Grk “he”; the referent (the boy) has been specified in the translation for clarity. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
9 tn Grk “than having.”
10 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

12 tn On the term γαζοφυλάκιον (gazofulakion), often translated “treasury,” see BDAG 186 s.v., which states, “For Mk 12:41, 43; Lk 21:1 the mng. contribution box or receptacle is attractive. Acc. to Mishnah, Shekalim 6, 5 there were in the temple 13 such receptacles in the form of trumpets. But even in these passages the general sense of ‘treasury’ is prob., for the contributions would go [into] the treasury via the receptacles.” Based upon the extra-biblical evidence (see sn following), however, the translation opts to refer to the actual receptacles and not the treasury itself.
sn The offering box probably refers to the receptacles in the temple forecourt by the Court of Women used to collect freewill offerings. These are mentioned by Josephus, J. W. 5.5.2 (5.200); 6.5.2 (6.282); Ant. 19.6.1 (19.294), and in 1 Macc 14:49 and 2 Macc 3:6, 24, 28, 40 (see also Luke 21:1; John 8:20).
13 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
14 tn See the note on the term “offering box” in v. 41.
15 sn Has put more into the offering box than all the others. With God, giving is weighed evaluatively, not counted. The widow was praised because she gave sincerely and at some considerable cost to herself.
16 sn Since women usually carried these jars, it would have been no problem for the two disciples (Luke 22:8 states that they were Peter and John) to recognize the man Jesus was referring to.
17 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the flow within the narrative.
18 tn Grk “and came.”
19 sn The author’s note that the disciples found things just as he had told them shows that Jesus’ word could be trusted.
20 tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “So” to indicate that the soldiers’ action is in response to Pilate’s condemnation of the prisoner in v. 15.
21 tn Grk “(that is, the praetorium).”
sn The governor’s residence (Grk “praetorium”) was the Roman governor’s official residence. The one in Jerusalem may have been Herod’s palace in the western part of the city, or the fortress Antonia northwest of the temple area.
22 sn A Roman cohort was a tenth of a legion, about 500-600 soldiers.
23 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.
24 sn Mark does not explicitly identify the young man dressed in a white robe as an angel (though the white robe suggests this), but Matthew does (Matt 28:2).
