NET © Notes |
1 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. 2 tn Grk “voice, saying”; the participle λέγοντες (legontes) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated here. 3 tn The expression ἕως πότε (ews pote) was translated “how long.” Cf. BDAG 423 s.v. ἕως 1.b.γ. 4 tn The Greek term here is δεσπότης (despoths; see L&N 37.63). |
