Paul’s Motivation for Writing the Letter

15:14 But I myself am fully convinced about you, my brothers and sisters, ²  that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and able to instruct one another.

[8:38]  ¹ tn BDAG 138 s.v. ἀρχή 6 takes this term as a reference to angelic or transcendent powers (as opposed to merely human rulers). To clarify this, the adjective “heavenly” has been supplied in the translation. Some interpreters see this as a reference to fallen angels or demonic powers, and this view is reflected in some recent translations (NIV, NLT).

[15:14]  ² tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:13.
