[3:16]  1 tn Or “All scripture.”

[3:16]  2 sn Inspired by God. Some have connected this adjective in a different way and translated it as “every inspired scripture is also useful.” But this violates the parallelism of the two adjectives in the sentence, and the arrangement of words makes clear that both should be taken as predicate adjectives: “every scripture is inspired…and useful.”

[3:16]  3 tn Or “rebuke,” “censure.” The Greek word implies exposing someone’s sin in order to bring correction.

[2:22]  4 tn Grk “and peace, with those.”

[2:22]  5 sn In company with others who call on the Lord from a pure heart alludes to the value of the community of believers for the development of Christian virtues.

[4:8]  7 tn Grk “all who have loved.”
