[2:47]  1 tn Or “the favor.”

[2:47]  2 tn BDAG 437 s.v. ἡμέρα 2.c has “every day” for this phrase.

[10:16]  3 tn Grk “And I have.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

[10:16]  4 tn Or “that do not belong to”; Grk “that are not of.”

[10:16]  5 sn The statement I have other sheep that do not come from this sheepfold almost certainly refers to Gentiles. Jesus has sheep in the fold who are Jewish; there are other sheep which, while not of the same fold, belong to him also. This recalls the mission of the Son in 3:16-17, which was to save the world – not just the nation of Israel. Such an emphasis would be particularly appropriate to the author if he were writing to a non-Palestinian and primarily non-Jewish audience.

[10:16]  6 tn Grk “they will hear my voice.”

[10:16]  7 tn Grk “voice, and.”

[10:16]  8 tn The word “and” is not in the Greek text, but must be supplied to conform to English style. In Greek it is an instance of asyndeton (omission of a connective), usually somewhat emphatic.

[11:52]  9 tn See the note on the word “nation” in the previous verse.

[11:52]  10 sn The author in his comment expands the prophecy to include the Gentiles (not for the Jewish nation only), a confirmation that the Fourth Gospel was directed, at least partly, to a Gentile audience. There are echoes of Pauline concepts here (particularly Eph 2:11-22) in the stress on the unity of Jew and Gentile.

[11:52]  11 tn Grk “that he might gather together.”

[11:52]  12 sn This is a parenthetical note by the author.

[11:7]  13 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[1:19]  14 tn Or “immeasurable, surpassing”

[1:19]  15 tn Or “for, to”

[1:19]  16 tn Grk “according to.”

[1:19]  17 tn Grk “according to the exercise of the might of his strength.”

[2:5]  18 tn Or “by grace you have been saved.” The perfect tense in Greek connotes both completed action (“you have been saved”) and continuing results (“you are saved”).

[2:7]  19 tn Or possibly “to the Aeons who are about to come.”

[2:7]  20 tn Or “upon.”

[2:8]  21 tn See note on the same expression in v. 5.

[2:8]  22 tc The feminine article is found before πίστεως (pistews, “faith”) in the Byzantine text as well as in A Ψ 1881 pc. Perhaps for some scribes the article was intended to imply creedal fidelity as a necessary condition of salvation (“you are saved through the faith”), although elsewhere in the corpus Paulinum the phrase διὰ τῆς πίστεως (dia th" pistew") is used for the act of believing rather than the content of faith (cf. Rom 3:30, 31; Gal 3:14; Eph 3:17; Col 2:12). On the other side, strong representatives of the Alexandrian and Western texts (א B D* F G P 0278 6 33 1739 al bo) lack the article. Hence, both text-critically and exegetically, the meaning of the text here is most likely “saved through faith” as opposed to “saved through the faith.” Regarding the textual problem, the lack of the article is the preferred reading.

[2:9]  23 tn Or “not as a result of.”

[2:9]  24 tn Grk “lest anyone should boast.”

[2:10]  25 tn Grk “so that we might walk in them” (or “by them”).

[2:2]  26 sn The relative pronoun which is feminine as is sins, indicating that sins is the antecedent.

[2:2]  27 tn Grk “walked.”

[2:2]  28 tn Or possibly “Aeon.”

[2:2]  29 tn Grk “domain, [place of] authority.”

[2:2]  30 tn Grk “of” (but see the note on the word “spirit” later in this verse).

[2:2]  31 sn The ruler of the kingdom of the air is also the ruler of the spirit that is now energizing the sons of disobedience. Although several translations regard the ruler to be the same as the spirit, this is unlikely since the cases in Greek are different (ruler is accusative and spirit is genitive). To get around this, some have suggested that the genitive for spirit is a genitive of apposition. However, the semantics of the genitive of apposition are against such an interpretation (cf. ExSyn 100).

[2:2]  32 tn Grk “working in.”

[2:2]  33 sn Sons of disobedience is a Semitic idiom that means “people characterized by disobedience.” However, it also contains a subtle allusion to vv. 4-10: Some of those sons of disobedience have become sons of God.

[2:13]  34 tn Or “have come near in the blood of Christ.”

[2:14]  35 tn Grk “who made the both one.”
