[4:6]  ¹ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.

[7:28]  ² tn Grk “these will have tribulation in the flesh.”

[7:28]  ³ tn Grk “I am trying to spare you.” Direct objects were frequently omitted in Greek when clear from the context. “Such problems” has been supplied here to make the sense of the statement clear.

[8:6]  ³ tn Grk “through whom [are] all things and we [are] through him.”

[9:20]  ⁴ tc The Byzantine text, as well as a few other witnesses (D² [L] Ψ 1881 Ï) lack this parenthetical material, while geographically widespread, early, and diverse witnesses have the words (so א A B C D* F G P 33 104 365 1175 1505 1739 al latt). The phrase may have dropped out accidentally through homoioteleuton (note that both the preceding phrase and the parenthesis end in ὑπὸ νόμον [Jupo nomon, “under the law”]), or intentionally by overscrupulous scribes who felt that the statement “I myself am not under the law” could have led to license.

[15:58]  ⁵ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.
