Matthew Study Notes—Chapter 21

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
- 21:29
  
  this one said, ‘I will not’: In this parable (Mt 21:28-31), some Greek manuscripts present the two sons and their answers and actions in a different order. (See the rendering in previous editions of the New World Translation.) The overall idea is the same, but the manuscript support for the current reading is stronger.
