• What is the significance of the socio-economic context of the first century CE?

Additional Annotation Tips:
• Carefully select text for explanation, ideally selecting smaller, discrete sections.
• Avoid selecting individual words to explain unless they're particularly rich and need a lot of unpacking. Otherwise, fold word definitions into a larger explanation of a phrase, line, etc.
• Be concise. This should be a space where multiple contributors can add to each note.
• Use third person only.
• Don't just rephrase the line. Instead, add context, interpretation, and/or multimedia (see below).
• Add pictures and videos to help illustrate a line, or to support your argument about the text.
• If you quote a source, use quotation marks and cite it. If you paraphrase an argument from another source, cite it. Not only will you avoid plagiarism, you’ll create a much more helpful annotation.
