Romans 8:5
Context8:5 For those who live according to the flesh have their outlook shaped by 1 the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit have their outlook shaped by the things of the Spirit.
Romans 13:14
Context13:14 Instead, put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh to arouse its desires. 2


[8:5] 1 tn Grk “think on” or “are intent on” (twice in this verse). What is in view here is not primarily preoccupation, however, but worldview. Translations like “set their mind on” could be misunderstood by the typical English reader to refer exclusively to preoccupation.
[13:14] 2 tn Grk “make no provision for the flesh unto desires.”
