# Mark 14 General Notes #
|
|
|
|
#### Structure and format ####
|
|
|
|
Some translations indent each line of poetry to make it easier to read. The ULB does this with the poetry in 14:27, 62, which is quoted from the OT.
|
|
|
|
#### Special concepts in this chapter ####
|
|
|
|
##### The eating of the body and blood #####
|
|
|
|
To this day, this symbolic action is practiced in nearly all churches in remembrance of Christ's sacrifice for the sins of man. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/sin]])
|
|
|
|
#### Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter ####
|
|
|
|
##### "Son of Man" #####
|
|
|
|
Jesus refers to himself as the "Son of Man" in this passage.
|
|
|
|
##### Abba, Father #####
|
|
"Abba" is an Aramaic word. It was an informal, loving way to refer to a person's father in ancient Israel. Mark "transliterates" its sounds by writing them with Greek letters, and then gives its meaning. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-transliterate]])
|
|
|
|
##### "I am" #####
|
|
This is a reference to the name of God, Yahweh. Jesus is explicitly claiming to be Yahweh. (See: [Mark 14:62](./60.md) and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
