- Luke 23:33 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the conclusion of the preceding material.
- Luke 23:33 sn The place that is called ‘The Skull’ (known as Golgotha in Aramaic, cf. John 19:17) is north and just outside of Jerusalem. The hill on which it is located protruded much like a skull, giving the place its name. The Latin word for Greek κρανίον (kranion) is calvaria, from which the English word “Calvary” derives (cf. Luke 23:33 in the KJV).
- Luke 23:33 sn See the note on crucify in 23:21.
