Galatians 4:10-12

Context
4:10 You are observing religious 1  days and months and seasons and years. 4:11 I fear for you that my work for you may have been in vain. 4:12 I beg you, brothers and sisters, 2  become like me, because I have become like you. You have done me no wrong!

[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.

[4:12]  2 tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:11.
