[1:6]  1 tn Grk “And they.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

[1:6]  2 tn Grk “walking in” (an idiom for one’s lifestyle).

[1:6]  3 tn The predicate adjective has the effect of an adverb here (BDF §243).

[1:75]  4 sn The phrases that we…might serve him…in holiness and righteousness from Luke 1:74-75 well summarize a basic goal for a believer in the eyes of Luke. Salvation frees us up to serve God without fear through a life full of ethical integrity.

[1:75]  5 tn Grk “all our days.”
