page 297 note 7 Mark vii. 8 f.; x. 5, 19; xii. 28–31.
page 297 note 8 Also in Acts, the Spirit always comes, in some fashion, at baptism; creates apostolic witness, and the new prophetic age; 'fills' the Lord's followers; and was the agent through whom Jesus worked.

page 297 note 11 It appears in the title of the gospel (i. 1), on the lips of Jesus' enemies (xv. 32), and thrice on Jesus' own lips (ix. 41; xii. 35–7; xiii. 21 f.). In none of these does Jesus unmistakably apply the term to himself.
page 298 note 1 Acts iii. 13, 25 f.; iv. 27 f., 30. At iv. 25, David likewise is called God's ραīς.
page 298 note 2 Acts iv. 1–12, xiii. 26, 47 f.; xvi. 7, xxviii. 28 refer to Christian salvation, vii. 25 to the Exodus, and xxvii. 34 to ‘salvation’ from a shipwreck.
page 298 note 3 Acts ii. 47, xxiv. 27, xxv. 3, 9 refer to human favour, but vii. 10, 46, xi. 23, xiii. 43, xv. 40, iii. 27 to divine grace.
page 298 note 4 It does mention ‘repentance’ through John's baptism, xiii. 24; xix. 24.

page 299 note 1 Luke iv. 44 B D etc.; v. 17; vi. 17; vii. 17; xxii. 39, 52 f.
page 299 note 2 Perhaps Luke's effort to combine conflicting traditions produced the maladroit geography of his central section, ix. 46—xviii. 34.
page 299 note 3 Acts ii. 12, 34; xi. 30.
page 299 note 4 In Markan passages, v. 20; viii. 25, 48; xviii. 42; and non-Markan ones, vii. 9; xvii. 5?, 6, 9.

page 299 note 12 At iii. 22, the Alexandrian text follows Mark, the Western follows Acts. At xxiv. 51 it is the reverse, the Alexandrian but not the Western reporting the ascension.
page 300 note 1 Luke ix. 33; xxii. 33 f., 45. The omitted passage is Mark viii. 33.

page 301 note 5 John vii. 24; viii. 15; xviii. 31. Of course it says a great deal more about divine judgement: iii. 17–19; v. 22–30; vii. 51; viii. 15 f., 26, 50; xii. 47 f.; xvi. 8, 11.
page 301 note 6 Even to the phrase ‘blood of the covenant’, xxvi. 28.

page 302 note 1 ρίστıς is undefined at xxiii. 23, but elsewhere has exactly the same meaning as in Mark, even in passages Mark lacks. Cf. Matt. viii. 10, 26; ix. 2, 19, 22; xv. 28; xvii. 20; xxi. 21.
page 302 note 2 Matt. ii. 6; viii. 10; ix. 33; x. 6, 23; xv. 24, 31; xix. 28; xxii. 37; xxvii. 42.
page 302 note 3 Matt. ii. 20 f.; x. 6; xv. 24, 31; xxvii. 9.
page 302 note 4 Matt. vi. 10; vii. 21; xii. 50; xviii. 14; xxi. 31.
page 302 note 5 John does not list the Twelve, and names only seven or eight of them; describes them differently; mentions circumcision, but with no hint of a difficulty; says nothing about repentance, forgiveness, or ‘faith’ (noun); mentions no έθνη or church or covenant; applies Isa. liii not to Jesus’ passion but to Israel's failure; foretells persecutions at the hands of Jews only.

page 303 note 2 This recalls Acts' ignorance of Paul's letters, Josephus, the Neronian persecution, the fall of Jerusalem, the deaths of Peter, Paul, and James ‘the Lord's brother’.

page 303 note 4 Lohmeyer, in a prolegomenon to his Commentary on the second gospel, and Lightfoot, in Christian Beginnings, agreed that the Galilean branch was more apocalyptic, the Jerusalem one more messianic in a narrow sense; and that Jerusalem Christianity found Christ's work to have been completed in his resurrection. Yet it was Jerusalem Christianity, not Galilean, that asserted his second coming without equivocation.
