[1:13]  ¹ tn Grk “so that the whole imperial guard.” The ὥστε (Jwste) clause that begins v. 13 indicates two results of the spread of the gospel: Outsiders know why Paul is imprisoned (v. 13) and believers are emboldened by his imprisonment (v. 14).

[1:13]  ² sn The whole imperial guard (Grk “praetorium”) can refer to the elite troops stationed in Rome or the headquarters of administrators in the provinces (cf. Matt 27:27; Mark 15:16; John 18:28, 33; 19:9; Acts 23:35). In either case a metonymy is involved, with the place (the praetorium) put for those (soldiers or government officials) who were connected with it or stationed in it.

[1:13]  ³ tn Grk “it has become known by the whole imperial guard and all the rest.”

[1:13]  ⁴ tn Grk “my bonds [are].”

[1:26]  ⁵ tn Grk “your boasting may overflow in Christ Jesus because of me,” or possibly, “your boasting in me may overflow in Christ Jesus.” BDAG 536 s.v. καύχημα 1 translates the phrase τὸ καύχημα ὑμῶν (to kauchma jJumwn) in Phil 1:26 as “what you can be proud of.”

[1:26]  ⁶ tn Grk “through my coming again to you.”

[2:1]  ⁹ tn Or “spiritual fellowship” if πνεύματος (pneumato") is an attributive genitive; or “fellowship brought about by the Spirit” if πνεύματος is a genitive of source or production.

[2:1]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “and any affection and mercy.” The Greek idea, however, is best expressed by “or” in English.

[3:14]  ¹³ tn Grk “according to the goal.”

[3:14]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “prize, namely, the heavenly calling of God.”

[4:19]  ¹⁷ tn Or “according to the riches of his glory.” The phrase “of his glory” is treated as an attributive genitive in the translation.
