Some translations prefer to set apart quotations of the Old Testament. The ULB and many other English translations indent the lines of 14:27, 62, which are quotations from the Old Testament.
#### 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 #####
This is a word in Aramaic. Mark does not "translate" this word into Greek but chooses to "transliterate" or transfer it into Greek by substituting Greek letters for Aramaic letters. The translators of the ULB and UDB have not translated this word either. The translator should try to form the sounds of this word without translating its meaning.
##### "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]])
