[14:5]  ¹ tn Grk “For one judges day from day, and one judges all days.”

[2:16]  ² 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]  ³ tn Grk “of people.”

[2:16]  ⁴ sn On my gospel cf. Rom 16:25; 2 Tim 2:8.

[8:36]  ³ sn A quotation from Ps 44:22.

[10:21]  ⁴ sn A quotation from Isa 65:2.

[2:5]  ⁵ tn Grk “hardness.” Concerning this imagery, see Jer 4:4; Ezek 3:7; 1 En. 16:3.

[2:5]  ⁶ tn Grk “in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God.”

[11:8]  ⁶ sn A quotation from Deut 29:4; Isa 29:10.

[14:6]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[1:9]  ⁸ tn Grk “whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel.”

[1:9]  ⁹ tn Grk “as.”

[11:31]  ⁹ tc Some important Alexandrian and Western mss (א B D*^,c 1506 pc bo) read νῦν (nun, “now”) here. A few other mss (33 365 pc sa) have ὕστερον (Justeron, “finally”). mss that lack the word are Ì⁴⁶ A D² F G Ψ 1739 1881 Ï latt. External evidence slightly favors omission with good representatives from the major texttypes, and because of the alliance of Alexandrian and Byzantine mss (with the Byzantine going against its normal tendency to embrace the longer reading). Internally, scribes could have added νῦν here to give balance to the preceding clause (οὗτοι νῦν ἠπείθησαν…αὐτοὶ νῦν ἐλεηθῶσιν [|outoi nun hpeiqhsan…autoi nun elehqwsin; “they have now been disobedient…they may now receive mercy”]). However, it seems much more likely that they would have deleted it because of its seeming inappropriateness in this context. That some witnesses have ὕστερον presupposes the presence of νῦν in their ancestors. A decision is difficult, but νῦν is slightly preferred, since it is the more difficult reading and is adequately represented in the mss.

[8:23]  ¹⁰ tn Or “who have the Spirit as firstfruits.” The genitive πνεύματος (pneumatos) can be understood here as possessive (“the firstfruits belonging to the Spirit”) although it is much more likely that this is a genitive of apposition (“the firstfruits, namely, the Spirit”); cf. TEV, NLT.

[8:23]  ¹¹ tn See the note on “adoption” in v. 15.

[8:23]  ¹² tn Grk “body.”
