[4:10]  1 tn The adjective “religious” has been supplied in the translation to make clear that the problem concerns observing certain days, etc. in a religious sense (cf. NIV, NRSV “special days”). In light of the polemic in this letter against the Judaizers (those who tried to force observance of the Mosaic law on Gentile converts to Christianity) this may well be a reference to the observance of Jewish Sabbaths, feasts, and other religious days.

[1:18]  2 map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.

[1:18]  3 sn Cephas. This individual is generally identified with the Apostle Peter (L&N 93.211).

[1:18]  4 tn Although often translated “to get acquainted with Cephas,” this could give the impression of merely a social call. L&N 34.52 has “to visit, with the purpose of obtaining information” for the meaning of ἱστορέω (Jistorew), particularly in this verse.

[4:12]  3 tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:11.

[4:29]  4 tn Grk “according to the flesh”; see the note on the phrase “by natural descent” in 4:23.

[4:29]  5 tn Or “the one born by the Spirit’s [power].”

[4:15]  5 tn Or “blessedness.”
