¹ tn The Greek verb here is εὐαγγελίζεται (euangelizetai).

² tn Grk “by [the] works of [the] law,” a reference to observing the Mosaic law.

³ tn Grk “by [the] hearing of faith.”

³ tn Or “provide.”

⁴ tn Grk “by [the] works of [the] law” (the same phrase as in v. 2).

⁵ tn Grk “by [the] hearing of faith” (the same phrase as in v. 2).

⁴ tn Or “The one who is righteous by faith will live” (a quotation from Hab 2:4).

⁵ tn Grk “is not from faith.”

⁶ tn Grk “who does these things”; the referent (the works of the law, see 3:5) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁷ sn A quotation from Lev 18:5. The phrase the works of the law is an editorial expansion on the Greek text (see previous note); it has been left as normal typeface to indicate it is not part of the OT text.

⁶ tn Grk “but faith working through love.”

⁷ tn That is, the fruit the Spirit produces.

⁸ sn Another way to punctuate this is “love” followed by a colon (love: joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control). It is thus possible to read the eight characteristics following “love” as defining love.

⁹ tn Or “reliability”; see BDAG 818 s.v. πίστις 1.a.

⁸ tn There is a double connective here that cannot be easily preserved in English: “consequently therefore,” emphasizing the conclusion of what Paul has been arguing.

⁹ tn Grk “to those who are members of the family of [the] faith.”
