Mark 5:22

Context
5:22 Then 1  one of the synagogue rulers, 2  named Jairus, 3  came up, and when he saw Jesus, 4  he fell at his feet.

Mark 5:35

Context

5:35 While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue ruler’s 5  house saying, “Your daughter has died. Why trouble the teacher any longer?”

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

2 tn That is, “an official in charge of the synagogue”; ἀρχισυνάγωγος (arcisunagwgo") refers to the “president of a synagogue” (so BDAG 139 s.v. and L&N 53.93; cf. Luke 8:41).

sn The synagogue was a place for Jewish prayer and worship, with recognized leadership. See also the note on synagogue in 1:21.

3 tc Codex Bezae (D) and some Itala mss omit the words “named Jairus.” The evidence for the inclusion of the phrase is extremely strong, however. The witnesses in behalf of ὀνόματι ᾿Ιάϊρος (onomati Iairos) include {Ì45 א A B C L Ï lat sy co}. The best explanation is that the phrase was accidentally dropped during the transmission of one strand of the Western text.

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

5 sn See the note on synagogue rulers in 5:22.
