## translationNotes

* The parable about shepherds and sheep continues.
* **treasury** - the storehouses in the temple of Yahweh
* **the excellent price** - This means to say that this price was very small for a shepherd doing Yahweh's work. See UDB, which removes the irony: "a ridiculously small amount of money." (See: [[[[:en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_irony]])
* **the thirty pieces of silver** - 330 grams of silver. A shekel weighed eleven grams. (See: [[en:obe:other:biblicalmoney]])
