NET © Notes |
1 tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity. 2 sn See John 3:1-21. 3 tn Grk “came”; the words “accompanied Joseph” are not in the Greek text but are supplied for clarity. 4 sn Aloes refers to an aromatic resin from a plant similar to a lily, used for embalming a corpse. 5 sn The Roman pound (λίτρα, litra) weighed twelve ounces or 325 grams. Thus 100 Roman pounds would be about 32.5 kilograms or 75 pounds. |
