[3:1]  ¹ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 2:11.

[3:1]  ² tn Grk “of our confession.”

[3:14]  ³ tn Grk “the beginning of the confidence.”

[6:19]  ⁵ sn The curtain refers to the veil or drape in the temple that separated the holy place from the holy of holies.

[10:20]  ⁷ tn Grk “that he inaugurated for us as a fresh and living way,” referring to the entrance mentioned in v. 19.

[10:20]  ⁸ sn Through his flesh. In a bold shift the writer changes from a spatial phrase (Christ opened the way through the curtain into the inner sanctuary) to an instrumental phrase (he did this through [by means of] his flesh in his sacrifice of himself), associating the two in an allusion to the splitting of the curtain in the temple from top to bottom (Matt 27:51; Mark 15:38; Luke 23:45). Just as the curtain was split, so Christ’s body was broken for us, to give us access into God’s presence.

[10:26]  ⁹ tn Grk “is left,” with “for us” implied by the first half of the verse.

[11:22]  ¹¹ tn Grk “coming to an end,” “dying.”

[11:22]  ¹² sn Joseph’s prophecy about the exodus of the sons of Israel is found in Gen 50:24.

[11:22]  ¹³ tn Grk “about his bones,” which refers by metonymy to the disposition of his bones, i.e., his burial.

[13:16]  ¹³ tn Grk “neglect doing good and fellowship.”

[13:22]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 2:11.
