4 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

5 sn That is, six o’clock in the evening, the hour to pay day laborers. See Lev 19:13b.

The omission is supported by א C L Z 085 Or. Nevertheless, NA27 includes the pronoun on the basis of the greater external attestation.

7 sn A legion was a Roman army unit of about 6,000 soldiers, so twelve legions would be 72,000.
