Some translations set each line of poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to make it easier to read. The ULB does this with the poetry in 14:27, 62, which is quoted from the OT.
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" is an Aramaic word. It was an informal, loving way to refer to a person's father in ancient Israel. Mark "transliterates" its sounds by writing them with Greek letters, and then gives its meaning. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-transliterate]])
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]])
