1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic. 2 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. 3 sn The Jerusalem temple was widely admired around the world. See Josephus, Ant. 15.11 [15.380-425]; J. W. 5.5 [5.184-227] and Tacitus, History 5.8, who called it “immensely opulent.” Josephus compared it to a beautiful snowcapped mountain. |
