1 sn A quotation from Exod 20:12; Deut 5:16.

2 sn A quotation from Exod 21:17; Lev 20:9.

3 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

4 tn Grk “his”; the referent (the deaf man) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

5 sn After spitting, he touched his tongue. It was not uncommon in Judaism of the day to associate curative powers with a person’s saliva. The scene as a whole reflects Jesus’ willingness to get close to people and have physical contact with them where appropriate. See W. L. Lane, Mark (NICNT), 267 n. 78.

6 sn The Lord said to my Lord. With David being the speaker, this indicates his respect for his descendant (referred to as my Lord). Jesus was arguing, as the ancient exposition assumed, that the passage is about the Lord’s anointed. The passage looks at an enthronement of this figure and a declaration of honor for him as he takes his place at the side of God. In Jerusalem, the king’s palace was located to the right of the temple to indicate this kind of relationship. Jesus was pressing the language here to get his opponents to reflect on how great Messiah is.

7 sn A quotation from Ps 110:1.

8 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”

9 tn See the note on the term “offering box” in v. 41.

10 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.

11 tn Grk “out of what abounded to them.”

12 sn The contrast between this passage, 12:41-44, and what has come before in 11:27-12:40 is remarkable. The woman is set in stark contrast to the religious leaders. She was a poor widow, they were rich. She was uneducated in the law, they were well educated in the law. She was a woman, they were men. But whereas they evidenced no faith and actually stole money from God and men (cf. 11:17), she evidenced great faith and gave out of her extreme poverty everything she had.

13 tn Or “will rebel against.”
