WK Translation Notes

+
a
It may be that the KJV has led some into, or confirmed in, the mistake of a possible conclusion here. "And many", etc., is not a quite correct rendering. It is literally the familiar "Many and other signs", that is, "Many other signs", etc.
b
"His" is added by many copies, but not the oldest or best.
