Moo (Romans 1-8 [WEC], 279) points out, refers to multiple aspects of the promise to Abraham: multiplied descendants (Gen 12:2), possession of the land (Gen 13:15-17), and his becoming the vehicle of blessing to all people (Gen 12:13).

[7:6]  ³ tn Grk “in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.”

[7:8]  ³ tn Or “covetousness.”
