Galatians 2:14

Context
2:14 But when I saw that they were not behaving consistently with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas 3  in front of them all, “If you, although you are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you try to force 4  the Gentiles to live like Jews?”

[4:1]  1 tn Grk “a small child.” The Greek term νήπιος (nhpios) refers to a young child, no longer a helpless infant but probably not more than three or four years old (L&N 9.43). The point in context, though, is that this child is too young to take any responsibility for the management of his assets.

[4:1]  2 tn Grk “master” or “lord” (κύριος, kurios).

[2:14]  3 sn Cephas. This individual is generally identified with the Apostle Peter (L&N 93.211).

[2:14]  4 tn Here ἀναγκάζεις (anankazei") has been translated as a conative present (see ExSyn 534).
