NET Notes

¹sn See the note on Pharisee in 5:34.

²sn The Greek word used here (δεῖ, dei) is a strong term that expresses divine necessity. The claim is that God commanded the circumcision of Gentiles.

³tn Grk “them”; the referent (the Gentiles) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁴tn Or “keep.”
