[4:2]  1 tn Or “they were not united.”

[4:2]  2 tc A few mss (א and a few versional witnesses) have the nominative singular participle συγκεκερασμένος (sunkekerasmeno", “since it [the message] was not combined with faith by those who heard it”), a reading that refers back to the ὁ λόγος (Jo logo", “the message”). There are a few other variants here (e.g., συγκεκεραμμένοι [sunkekerammenoi] in 104, συγκεκεραμένους [sunkekeramenou"] in 1881 Ï), but the accusative plural participle συγκεκερασμένους (sunkekerasmenou"), found in Ì13vid,46 A B C D* Ψ 0243 0278 33 81 1739 2464 pc, has by far the best external credentials. This participle agrees with the previous ἐκείνους (ekeinou", “those”), a more difficult construction grammatically than the nominative singular. Thus, both on external and internal grounds, συγκεκερασμένους is preferred.

[10:22]  3 tn Grk “in assurance of faith.”

[10:22]  4 sn The phrase our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience combines the OT imagery of the sprinkling with blood to give ritual purity with the emphasis on the interior cleansing provided by the new covenant: It is the heart that is cleansed and the conscience made perfect (cf. Heb 8:10; 9:9, 14; 10:2, 16).

[10:38]  5 tn Grk “my soul.”

[10:38]  6 sn A quotation from Hab 2:4.

[11:9]  7 tn Or “settled as a resident alien.”

[11:9]  8 tn Or “heirs with him.”

[11:11]  9 tn Grk “past the time of maturity.”

[11:11]  10 tn Grk “power to deposit seed.” Though it is not as likely, some construe this phrase to mean “power to conceive seed,” making the whole verse about Sarah: “by faith, even though Sarah herself was barren and too old, she received ability to conceive, because she regarded the one who had given the promise to be trustworthy.”

[11:21]  11 tn Grk “worshiped on the top of his staff,” a quotation from Gen 47:31 (LXX).

[11:23]  13 tn Grk “Moses, when he was born, was hidden by his parents.”

[11:28]  15 tn Grk “the pouring out of the blood.”
