1 tc ‡ The majority of 2 tn Grk “We commanded you with a commandment” (a Semitic idiom that is emphatic). 3 sn The name (i.e., person) of Jesus is the constant issue of debate. 4 tn Grk “And behold.” Because of the length of the Greek sentence and the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences, καί (kai) has not been translated here. 5 map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4. 6 sn To bring this man’s blood on us is an idiom meaning “you intend to make us guilty of this man’s death.” |
