Luke 15:22

15:22 But the father said to his slaves, ¹  ‘Hurry! Bring the best robe, ²  and put it on him! Put a ring on his finger ³  and sandals ⁴  on his feet!

Ephesians 6:15

6:15 by fitting your ⁵  feet with the preparation that comes from the good news ⁶  of peace, ⁷ 

Philippians 1:27

1:27 Only conduct yourselves ⁸  in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ so that – whether I come and see you or whether I remain absent – I should hear that ⁹  you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind, by contending side by side for the faith of the gospel, ¹⁰ 

[15:22]  ¹ tn See the note on the word “slave” in 7:2.

[15:22]  ² sn With the instructions Hurry! Bring the best robe, there is a total acceptance of the younger son back into the home.

[15:22]  ³ tn Grk “hand”; but χείρ (ceir) can refer to either the whole hand or any relevant part of it (L&N 8.30).

[15:22]  ⁴ sn The need for sandals underlines the younger son’s previous destitution, because he was barefoot.

[6:15]  ⁵ tn The definite article τοῖς (tois) was taken as a possessive pronoun, i.e., “your,” since it refers to a part of the physical body.

[6:15]  ⁶ tn Grk “gospel.” However, this is not a technical term here.

[6:15]  ⁷ tn Grk “in preparation of the gospel of peace.” The genitive τοῦ εὐαγγελίου (tou euangeliou) was taken as a genitive of source, i.e., “that comes from….”

[1:27]  ⁸ tn Grk “live as citizens.” The verb πολιτεύεσθε (politeuesqe) connotes the life of a freeman in a free Roman colony.

[1:27]  ⁹ tn Grk “the things concerning you, [namely,] that.” The ὅτι (Joti) clause is appositional to τὰ περὶ ὑμῶν (ta peri Jumwn) and therefore “the things concerning you” was not translated.

[1:27]  ¹⁰ tn The phrase “the faith of the gospel” could mean one of three things: “the faith that is the gospel” (genitive of apposition), “the faith that originates from the gospel” (genitive of source), or “faith in the gospel” (objective genitive).
