[5:6]  1 tn Grk “but faith working through love.”

[5:1]  2 tn Translating the dative as “For freedom” shows the purpose for Christ setting us free; however, it is also possible to take the phrase in the sense of means or instrument (“with [or by] freedom”), referring to the freedom mentioned in 4:31 and implied throughout the letter.

[5:1]  3 sn Here the yoke figuratively represents the burdensome nature of slavery.

[3:14]  4 tn Or “so that the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus.”
