1 tn Grk “At that time, answering, Jesus said.” This construction is somewhat redundant in English and has been simplified in the translation.
2 tn Or “thank.”
3 sn The title Lord is an important name for God, showing his sovereignty, but it is interesting that it comes next to a reference to the Father, a term indicative of God’s care. The two concepts are often related in the NT; see Eph 1:3-6.
4 tn Or “that.”
5 sn See 1 Cor 1:26-31.
6 sn This verse has been noted for its conceptual similarity to teaching in John’s Gospel (10:15; 17:2). The authority of the Son and the Father are totally intertwined.
7 tn Or “wishes”; or “intends”; or “plans” (cf. BDAG 182 s.v. βούλομαι 2.b). Here it is the Son who has sovereignty.
8 tn Or “and the scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 2:4.
9 tn Grk “crying out in the temple [courts] and saying.” The participle λέγοντας (legontas) is somewhat redundant here in contemporary English and has not been translated.
10 tn Grk “he.”
11 tn Grk “the temple.”
12 tn On this phrase, see BDAG 844 s.v. ποῖος 2.a.γ.1
13 tn Grk “answering, he said to them.” The participle ἀποκριθείς (ajpokriqei") is redundant in English and has not been translated.
14 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amhn), I say to you.”
15 sn With the statement not one stone will be left on another Jesus predicted the total destruction of the temple, something that did occur in
16 tn Grk “not one stone will be left here on another which will not be thrown down.”
17 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
18 sn Because the phrase these things is plural, more than the temple’s destruction is in view. The question may presuppose that such a catastrophe signals the end.
