[1:9] 1 tn Grk “who,” describing the people mentioned in v. 8. A new sentence was started here in the translation by replacing the relative pronoun with a personal pronoun.
[1:9] 2 tn Or “power,” or “might.” The construction can also be translated as an attributed genitive: “from his glorious strength” (cf. TEV “glorious might”; CEV “glorious strength”; NLT “glorious power”).
[2:1] 3 tn Or perhaps “return” (cf. CEV).
[2:1] 4 tn Grk “our gathering with him.”
[2:1] 5 tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:3.
[2:9] 5 tn Grk “whose coming,” referring to the lawless one. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek construction, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
