prov ton katartismon twn agiwn eiv ergon diakoniav eiv oikodomhn tou swmatov tou cristou

NETBible

to equip 1  the saints for the work of ministry, that is, 2  to build up the body of Christ,

NET Notes

tn On the translation of πρὸς τὸν καταρτισμὸν τῶν ἁγίων (pro" ton katartismon twn Jagiwn) as “to equip the saints” see BDAG 526 s.v. καταρτισμός. In this case the genitive is taken as objective and the direct object of the verbal idea implied in καταρτισμός (katartismo").

tn The εἰς (eis) clause is taken as epexegetical to the previous εἰς clause, namely, εἰς ἔργον διακονίας (ei" ergon diakonia").
