NETBible

And this prefigured baptism, which now saves you¹ – not the washing off of physical dirt² but the pledge³ of a good conscience to God – through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

NET Notes

¹tn Grk “which also, [as] an antitype, now saves you, [that is] baptism.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

²tn Grk “the removal of the dirt of the flesh,” where flesh refers to the physical make-up of the body with no moral connotations.

³tn Or “response”; “answer.”
