1 tn Grk “And they.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. 2 sn They were amazed. The astonishment shown here is like that in Luke 2:48. 3 tn Grk “because his word was.” 4 sn Jesus’ teaching impressed the hearers with the directness of its claim (with authority). A study of Jewish rabbinic interpretation shows that it was typical to cite a list of authorities to make one’s point. Apparently Jesus addressed the issues in terms of his own understanding. |
