[2:14]  1 sn Gentile is a NT term for a non-Jew.

[2:14]  2 tn Some (e.g. C. E. B. Cranfield, Romans [ICC], 1:135-37) take the phrase φύσει (fusei, “by nature”) to go with the preceding “do not have the law,” thus: “the Gentiles who do not have the law by nature,” that is, by virtue of not being born Jewish.

[2:14]  3 tn Grk “do by nature the things of the law.”

[9:8]  4 tn Grk “That is,” or “That is to say.”

[9:8]  5 tn Because it forms the counterpoint to “the children of promise” the expression “children of the flesh” has been retained in the translation.
