Romans 11:25

[2:8]  ¹ tn This contrast is clearer and stronger in Greek than can be easily expressed in English.

[2:8]  ² tn Grk “those who [are] from selfish ambition.”

[2:8]  ³ tn Grk “are persuaded by, obey.”

[6:6]  ⁴ tn Grk “knowing this, that.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[6:6]  ⁵ tn Grk “may be rendered ineffective, inoperative,” or possibly “may be destroyed.” The term καταργέω (katargew) has various nuances. In Rom 7:2 the wife whose husband has died is freed from the law (i.e., the law of marriage no longer has any power over her, in spite of what she may feel). A similar point seems to be made here (note v. 7).

[10:21]  ⁷ sn A quotation from Isa 65:2.

[11:25]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:13.

[11:25]  ¹¹ tn Or “Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.”

[11:25]  ¹² tn Grk “fullness.”
