    • 17:20

      your little faith: The Greek expression is related to the term rendered “you with little faith” at Mt 6:30; 8:26; 14:31; 16:8; Lu 12:28. Jesus does not imply that his disciples were entirely without faith but, rather, that their faith needed to be stronger.​—See study notes on Mt 6:30; 8:26.

      truly: See study note on Mt 5:18.

      the size of a mustard grain: Or “as small as a mustard seed.”​—See study notes on Mt 13:31, 32.
