Mark xi. 17.-nadiv rois ideoiv is here according to the Seventy. Matthew and Luke abridge the Greek version; Mark follows it more fully. (See on Matthew xxi, 13.)

Mark xii. 19. This is a reference to a passage rather than an actual quotation.

Mark xii. 31.-Exactly from the Seventy.

Mark xii. 36.-This agrees with Matthew xxii. 44.

Mark xiv. 27.-This agrees with Matthew xxvi. 31, in opposition to the Hebrew text and the Seventy, but leaves out an addition made by Matthew, viz. τῆς ποίμνης.

Mark xv. 28. From the Seventy, with a slight alteration. Mark xv. 34.-See on Matthew xxvii. 46.

Luke i. 17.— This quotation departs both from the Seventy and the Hebrew. The evangelist merely gives the general sense.

Luke ii. 23. This does not accord with the Hebrew so closely as with the Greek version.

Luke ii. 24.-This citation seems to have been taken from the Greek. Both versions give the sense of the Hebrew, though neither renders it exactly. "Two female turtle-doves, or two sons of a pigeon." The gender in Hebrew differs from that in Luke.
