NET Notes

¹tn Grk “gospel, and not only this, but.” Here a new sentence was started in the translation.

²tn Grk “he”; the referent (the brother mentioned in v. 18) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³tn That is, the offering or collection being taken to assist impoverished Christians.

⁴tn The words “to help” are not in the Greek text but are implied (see L&N 25.68).
