[3:25]  1 tn Grk “that which he did wrong.”

[3:25]  2 tn The Greek word used here is προσωπολημψία (proswpolhmyia) and is usually translated “partiality.” It is used to describe unjust or unrighteous favoritism (Rom 2:11, Eph 6:9, Jas 2:1). When it comes to disciplining his children for their sins, God will treat all equally with no partiality.

[4:13]  1 tn Grk “pain.” This word appears only three times in the NT outside of this verse (Rev 16:10, 11; 21:4) where the translation “pain” makes sense. For the present verse it has been translated “worked hard.” See BDAG 852 s.v. πόνος 1.

[2:1]  1 tn Or “I want you to know how hard I am working for you…”

[2:1]  2 tn Grk “as many as have not seen my face in the flesh.”

[2:5]  1 tn The conditional particle εἰ (ei) together with καί (kai) here indicates a first class condition in Greek and carries a concessive force, especially when seen in contrast to the following phrase which begins with ἀλλά (alla).

[2:5]  2 tn Grk “rejoicing and seeing.”

[2:5]  3 tn The Greek word τάξις can mean “order,” “discipline,” or even “unbroken ranks” (REB).
