Mark 8:31

Context
First Prediction of Jesus’ Death and Resurrection

8:31 Then 1  Jesus 2  began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer 3  many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and experts in the law, 4  and be killed, and after three days rise again.

1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

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

3 sn The necessity that the Son of Man suffer is the particular point that needed emphasis, since for many 1st century Jews the Messiah was a glorious and powerful figure, not a suffering one.

4 tn Or “and the scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 1:22.
