1 tn Grk “but as much as he ordered them, these rather so much more proclaimed.” Greek tends to omit direct objects when they are clear from the context, but these usually need to be supplied for the modern English reader. Here what Jesus ordered has been clarified (“ordered them not to do this”), and the pronoun “it” has been supplied after “proclaimed.”
2 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
3 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
4 tn Grk “in [the] name that of Christ you are.”
5 tn Or “bear the Messiah’s”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”
sn See the note on Christ in 8:29.
6 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of previous action(s) in the narrative.
7 tn Grk “answering, they said to Jesus.” The participle ἀποκριθέντες (apokriqentes) is redundant, but the syntax of the phrase has been modified to conform to English style.
8 sn Very few questions could have so completely revealed the wicked intentions of the religious leaders. Jesus’ question revealed the motivation of the religious leaders and exposed them for what they really were – hypocrites. They indicted themselves when they cited only two options and chose neither of them (“We do not know”). The point of Mark 11:27-33 is that no matter what Jesus said in response to their question they were not going to believe it and would in the end use it against him.
9 sn Neither will I tell you. Though Jesus gave no answer, the analogy he used to their own question makes his view clear. His authority came from heaven.
10 tn On this phrase, see BDAG 844 s.v. ποῖος 2.a.γ. This is exactly the same phrase as in v. 28.
11 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
12 tn See the note on the term “offering box” in v. 41.
13 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.
14 sn Both references to these things are plural, so more than the temple’s destruction is in view. The question may presuppose that such a catastrophe signals the end.
15 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
16 tn Grk “while they were reclined at the table.”
sn 1st century middle eastern meals were not eaten while sitting at a table, but while reclining on one’s side on the floor with the head closest to the low table and the feet farthest away.
17 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
18 tn Or “will hand me over”; Grk “one of you will betray me, the one who eats with me.”
19 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
20 tn Grk “because their eyes were weighed down,” an idiom for becoming extremely or excessively sleepy (L&N 23.69).
