Romans 8:5-8

Context
8:5 For those who live according to the flesh have their outlook shaped by 2  the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit have their outlook shaped by the things of the Spirit. 8:6 For the outlook 3  of the flesh is death, but the outlook of the Spirit is life and peace, 8:7 because the outlook of the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to the law of God, nor is it able to do so. 8:8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

[6:32]  1 tn Or “unbelievers”; Grk “Gentiles.”

[8:5]  2 tn Grk “think on” or “are intent on” (twice in this verse). What is in view here is not primarily preoccupation, however, but worldview. Translations like “set their mind on” could be misunderstood by the typical English reader to refer exclusively to preoccupation.

[8:6]  3 tn Or “mindset,” “way of thinking” (twice in this verse and once in v. 7). The Greek term φρόνημα does not refer to one’s mind, but to one’s outlook or mindset.

[3:19]  4 tn Grk “whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly and glory is their shame, these who think of earthly things.”

[3:15]  5 tn Grk “This.”

[3:15]  6 tn Grk “come down”; “descend.”

[3:15]  7 tn Grk “soulish,” which describes life apart from God, characteristic of earthly human life as opposed to what is spiritual. Cf. 1 Cor 2:14; 15:44-46; Jude 19.

[3:17]  8 tn Or “willing to yield,” “open to persuasion.”

[3:17]  9 tn Grk “fruits.” The plural Greek term καρπούς has been translated with the collective singular “fruit.”

[3:17]  10 tn Or “sincere.”

[3:18]  11 tn Grk “the fruit of righteousness,” meaning righteous living as a fruit, as the thing produced.

[3:18]  12 tn Grk “is sown.”

[3:18]  13 tn Or “for,” or possibly “by.”

[3:1]  14 tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:2.

[3:1]  15 tn Grk “will receive a greater judgment.”

[4:1]  16 tn The word “where” is repeated in Greek for emphasis.

[4:1]  17 tn Grk “from here.”

[4:1]  18 tn Grk “in your members [i.e., parts of the body].”

[4:1]  19 tn The word “where” is repeated in Greek for emphasis.

[4:1]  20 tn Grk “from here.”

[4:1]  21 tn Grk “in your members [i.e., parts of the body].”

[2:15]  22 tn It is important to note that the words ἀδελφός (adelfos) and ἀδελφή (adelfh) both occur in the Greek text at this point, confirming that the author intended to refer to both men and women. See the note on “someone” in 2:2.
