Colossians 3:17

Colossians 1:16

1:16 for all things in heaven and on earth were created by him – all things, whether visible or invisible, whether thrones or dominions, ⁶  whether principalities or powers – all things were created through him and for him.

[93:5]  ¹ tn Traditionally “your testimonies.” The Hebrew noun עֵדוּת (’edut) refers here to the demands of God’s covenant law. See Ps 19:7.

[93:5]  ² sn The rules you set down. God’s covenant contains a clear, reliable witness to his moral character and demands.

[93:5]  ³ sn Holiness refers here to God’s royal transcendence (see vv. 1-4), as well as his moral authority and perfection (see v. 5a).

[93:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “for your house holiness is fitting, O Lord, for length of days.”

[42:12]  ⁵ tc The MT apparently evidences dittography, repeating most of the last word of the previous verse: “and like the openings of.”

[1:16]  ⁶ tn BDAG 579 s.v. κυριότης 3 suggests “bearers of the ruling powers, dominions” here.
