1 tn Grk “behold, an angel.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).
2 tn Or “the angel of the Lord.” See the note on the word “Lord” in 1:20.
3 sn See the note on King Herod in 2:1. Herod the Great was particularly ruthless regarding the succession to his throne.

13 sn The statement you…will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel looks at the future authority the Twelve will have when Jesus returns. They will share in Israel’s judgment.
14 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
15 sn You take care of it yourselves! Compare the response of the chief priests and elders to Judas in 27:4. The expression is identical except that in 27:4 it is singular and here it is plural.
