| NET © Notes |
1 tn Grk “the day began to decline,” looking to the approach of sunset. 2 tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate that the disciples’ request was related to the approach of sunset. 3 tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. 4 tn That is, find someone to show them hospitality. L&N 34.61 has “find lodging,” using this verse as an example. 5 tn Or “in a desert” (meaning a deserted or desolate area with sparse vegetation). Here ὧδε (Jwde) has not been translated. |
