[16:12]  ¹ tn Grk “with the brothers.”

[16:12]  ² tn Grk “it was simply not the will that he come now.”

[2:1]  ³ tn Grk “and I, when I came.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, κἀγώ (kagw) has not been translated here.

[2:1]  ⁴ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.

[2:1]  ⁵ tc ‡ A few important mss (Ì^46vid א* A C pc as well as some versions and fathers) read μυστήριον (musthrion, “mystery”) instead of μαρτύριον (marturion, “testimony”). But the latter has wider ms support (א² B D F G Ψ 33 1739 1881 Ï and some versions), though not quite as impressive. μαρτύριον may have been changed by scribes in anticipation of Paul’s words in 2:7, or conversely, μυστήριον may have been changed to conform to 1:6. Transcriptionally, since “the mystery of God/Christ” is a well-worn expression in the corpus Paulinum (1 Cor 2:7; 4:1; Eph 3:4; Col 2:2; 4:3), while “testimony of Christ” occurs in Paul only once (1 Cor 1:6, though “testimony of the Lord” appears in 2 Tim 1:8), and “testimony of God” never, it is likely that scribes changed the text to the more usual expression. A decision is difficult in this instance, but a slight preference should be given to μαρτύριον.

[4:18]  ⁵ tn Grk “puffed up”; “inflated.”

[4:21]  ⁷ tn Grk “rod.” Context indicates that this rod will be used for disciplinary purposes.

[13:10]  ⁹ tn Or “when completion.”

[16:2]  ¹¹ tn Grk “set aside, storing whatever he has been blessed with.”

[16:2]  ¹² tn Grk “set aside, storing.” The participle θησαυρίζων (qhsaurizwn) indicates the purpose or result of setting aside the extra income.

[16:2]  ¹³ tn “To the extent that God has blessed you” translates an awkward expression, “whatever has been prospered [to you].” This verb has been translated as an active with “God” as subject, taking it as a divine passive.

[16:2]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “so that collections will not be taking place.”

[16:11]  ¹³ tn Since Paul appears to expect specific delegates here and they were most likely men, the Greek word ἀδελφοί (adelfoi) here has not been not translated as “brothers and sisters.”

[4:5]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “time, until the Lord comes, who will bring to light.”

[4:5]  ¹⁶ tn Or “praise.”

[14:6]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.
