[2:11] 1 tn Grk “are all from one.”
[2:11] 2 tn Grk “for which reason.”
[2:11] 3 tn Grk “brothers,” but the Greek word may be used for “brothers and sisters” as here (cf. BDAG 18 s.v. ἀδελφός 1, where considerable nonbiblical evidence for the plural ἀδελφοί [adelfoi] meaning “brothers and sisters” is cited). The context here also indicates both men and women are in view; note especially the collective τὰ παιδία (ta paidia) in v. 14.
[7:5] 4 tn Or “the priesthood.”
[7:5] 5 tn Grk “from their brothers.” See BDAG 18-19 s.v. ἀδελφός 2.b.
