[1:8]  1 tn Grk “First.” Paul never mentions a second point, so J. B. Phillips translated “I must begin by telling you….”

[1:26]  2 tn Grk “for their females exchanged the natural function for that which is contrary to nature.” The term χρῆσις (crhsi") has the force of “sexual relations” here (L&N 23.65).

[2:16]  3 tn The form of the Greek word is either present or future, but it is best to translate in future because of the context of future judgment.

[2:16]  4 tn Grk “of people.”

[2:16]  5 sn On my gospel cf. Rom 16:25; 2 Tim 2:8.

[5:5]  4 tn The phrase ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ (Jh agaph tou qeou, “the love of God”) could be interpreted as either an objective genitive (“our love for God”), subjective genitive (“God’s love for us”), or both (M. Zerwick’s “general” genitive [Biblical Greek, §§36-39]; D. B. Wallace’s “plenary” genitive [ExSyn 119-21]). The immediate context, which discusses what God has done for believers, favors a subjective genitive, but the fact that this love is poured out within the hearts of believers implies that it may be the source for believers’ love for God; consequently an objective genitive cannot be ruled out. It is possible that both these ideas are meant in the text and that this is a plenary genitive: “The love that comes from God and that produces our love for God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us” (ExSyn 121).

[5:5]  5 sn On the OT background of the Spirit being poured out, see Isa 32:15; Joel 2:28-29.

[5:11]  5 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[5:11]  6 tn Or “exult, boast.”

[7:8]  6 tn Or “covetousness.”

[14:15]  7 tn Grk “brother.”

[14:15]  8 tn Grk “on account of food.”

[14:15]  9 tn Grk “according to love.”

[14:20]  8 sn Here clean refers to food being ceremonially clean.

[15:9]  9 tn There are two major syntactical alternatives which are both awkward: (1) One could make “glorify” dependent on “Christ has become a minister” and coordinate with “to confirm” and the result would be rendered “Christ has become a minister of circumcision to confirm the promises…and so that the Gentiles might glorify God.” (2) One could make “glorify” dependent on “I tell you” and coordinate with “Christ has become a minister” and the result would be rendered “I tell you that Christ has become a minister of circumcision…and that the Gentiles glorify God.” The second rendering is preferred.

[15:9]  10 sn A quotation from Ps 18:49.
