Footnotes

  1. 14:51 We think that this young man was called Mark. Mark wrote this book.
  2. 14:53 The most important priest was called Caiaphas. When all these important Jews met together, they were called the Sanhedrin. They decided together about how to rule the people. There were 71 men in the Sanhedrin. They had a lot of power, but they could not punish a guilty person with death. Only the Roman rulers could do that.
