2 Corinthians 10:5

10:5 and every arrogant obstacle ¹  that is raised up against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive to make it obey ²  Christ.

Luke 6:46

6:46 “Why ³  do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ ⁴  and don’t do what I tell you? ⁵ 

Romans 10:16

10:16 But not all have obeyed the good news, for Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?” ⁶ 

Romans 16:26

16:26 but now is disclosed, and through the prophetic scriptures has been made known to all the nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith –

Hebrews 5:9

5:9 And by being perfected in this way, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,

¹ tn The phrase “every arrogant obstacle” could be translated simply “all arrogance” (so L&N 88.207).

² tn Grk “to the obedience of Christ”; but since Χριστοῦ (Cristou) is clearly an objective genitive here, it is better to translate “to make it obey Christ.”

³ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

⁴ tn The double use of the vocative is normally used in situations of high emotion or emphasis. Even an emphatic confession without action means little.

⁵ sn Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do what I tell you? Respect is not a matter of mere words, but is reflected in obedient action. This short saying, which is much simpler than its more developed conceptual parallel in Matt 7:21-23, serves in this form to simply warn and issue a call to hear and obey, as the last parable also does in vv. 47-49.

⁶ sn A quotation from Isa 53:1.
