[4:18]  1 tn Grk “the greeting by my hand, of Paul.”

[4:18]  2 tn Or “my imprisonment.”

[4:18]  3 tc Most witnesses, including a few important ones (א2 D Ψ 075 0278 Ï lat sy), conclude this letter with ἀμήν (amhn, “amen”). Such a conclusion is routinely added by scribes to NT books because a few of these books originally had such an ending (cf. Rom 16:27; Gal 6:18; Jude 25). A majority of Greek witnesses have the concluding ἀμήν in every NT book except Acts, James, and 3 John (and even in these books, ἀμήν is found in some witnesses). It is thus a predictable variant. Further, the external evidence for the omission is quite compelling (א* A B C F G 048 6 33 81 1739* 1881 sa). The strongly preferred reading is therefore the omission of ἀμήν.

[2:1]  4 tn Or “I want you to know how hard I am working for you…”

[2:1]  5 tn Grk “as many as have not seen my face in the flesh.”
