| NET © Notes |
1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the result of the reports the man received about his manager. 2 tn Grk “him”; the referent (the manager) has been specified in the translation for clarity. 3 sn Although phrased as a question, the charges were believed by the owner, as his dismissal of the manager implies. 4 tn Or “stewardship”; the Greek word οἰκονομία (oikonomia) is cognate with the noun for the manager (οἰκονόμος, oikonomo"). |
