NET Notes

1 tn Grk “and.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

2 tn Grk “the deceitfulness of riches.” Cf. BDAG 99 s.v. ἀπάτη 1, “the seduction which comes from wealth.”

3 sn That is, their concern for spiritual things is crowded out by material things.
