         Comments: In a number of languages it is necessary to indicate specifically what is the content of a witness, so that, for example, in {S:04202101300008} it may be necessary to say ‘this is your chance to witness to the good news’ or ‘… to tell about the good news’ or ‘… to tell what you yourselves know about the good news.’
