[6:17]  1 tn Grk “in which.”

[6:17]  2 tn Or “immutable” (here and in v. 18); Grk “the unchangeableness of his purpose.”

[10:7]  3 tn Grk “behold,” but this construction often means “here is/there is” (cf. BDAG 468 s.v. ἰδού 2).

[10:7]  4 sn A quotation from Ps 40:6-8 (LXX). The phrase a body you prepared for me (in v. 5) is apparently an interpretive expansion of the HT reading “ears you have dug out for me.”

[11:3]  5 tn Grk “ages.” The temporal (ages) came to be used of the spatial (what exists in those time periods). See Heb 1:2 for same usage.

[11:3]  6 tn Grk “by God’s word.”

[11:3]  7 sn The Greek phrasing emphasizes this point by negating the opposite: “so that what is seen did not come into being from things that are visible.”
