[8:28]  ¹ tc ὁ θεός (Jo qeos, “God”) is found after the verb συνεργεῖ (sunergei, “work”) in v. 28 by Ì⁴⁶ A B 81 sa; the shorter reading is found in א C D F G Ψ 33 1739 1881 Ï latt sy bo. Although the inclusion is supported by a significant early papyrus, the alliance of significant Alexandrian and Western witnesses favors the shorter reading. As well, the longer reading is evidently motivated by a need for clarification. Since ὁ θεός is textually suspect, it is better to read the text without it. This leaves two good translational options: either “he works all things together for good” or “all things work together for good.” In the first instance the subject is embedded in the verb and “God” is clearly implied (as in v. 29). In the second instance, πάντα (panta) becomes the subject of an intransitive verb. In either case, “What is expressed is a truly biblical confidence in the sovereignty of God” (C. E. B. Cranfield, Romans [ICC], 1:427).

[8:29]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (God’s Son) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[8:29]  ³ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:13.

[3:14]  ⁴ tn Grk “according to the goal.”

[3:14]  ⁵ tn Grk “prize, namely, the heavenly calling of God.”

[3:2]  ⁶ sn Dogs is a figurative reference to false teachers whom Paul regards as just as filthy as dogs.

[3:2]  ⁷ tn Grk “beware of the mutilation.”

[1:2]  ⁸ tn Grk “Grace to you and peace.”

[3:1]  ⁹ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 2:11.

[3:1]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “of our confession.”

[3:1]  ¹¹ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 2:11.

[3:1]  ¹² tn Grk “of our confession.”

[3:9]  ¹³ tn Grk “tested me by trial.”

[5:10]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “having been designated,” continuing the thought of Heb 5:9.

[5:10]  ¹⁵ sn The phrase in the order of Melchizedek picks up the quotation from Ps 110:4 in Heb 5:6.

[1:3]  ¹⁶ tn Grk “who being…and sustaining.” Heb 1:1-4 form one skillfully composed sentence in Greek, but it must be broken into shorter segments to correspond to contemporary English usage, which does not allow for sentences of this length and complexity.

[1:3]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “by the word of his power.”

[1:3]  ¹⁸ sn An allusion to Ps 110:1, quoted often in Hebrews.
