[1:4]  1 tn Grk “longing to see you, remembering your tears” (as a continuation of the preceding clause). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[2:4]  2 tn Grk “that he may please.”

[3:17]  3 tn Grk “the man of God,” but ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpos) is most likely used here in a generic sense, referring to both men and women.

[3:17]  4 tn This word is positioned for special emphasis; it carries the sense of “complete, competent, able to meet all demands.”
