NET Notes

1 tn BDAG 568 s.v. κρίνω 5.b.α states, “Oft. the emphasis is unmistakably laid upon that which follows the Divine Judge’s verdict, upon the condemnation or punishment: condemn, punish …Ac 7:7 (Gen 15:14).”

2 tn The words “of there” are not in the Greek text, but are implied.

2 sn A quotation from Gen 15:14.

3 tn Or “and serve,” but with religious/cultic overtones (BDAG 587 s.v. λατρεύω).

4 sn An allusion to Exod 3:12.
