[4:7]  1 sn The expression I have competed well (Grk “I have competed the good competition”) uses words that may refer to a race or to a boxing or wrestling match: “run the good race” or “fight the good fight.” The similar phrase in 1 Tim 1:18 uses a military picture and is more literally “war the good warfare.”

[4:17]  2 tn Or “the preaching.”

[4:17]  3 tn Grk “might be completely fulfilled.”
