¹ tn Grk “who was foreknown,” describing Christ in v. 19. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

² tn Greek emphasizes the contrast between these two clauses more than can be easily expressed in English.

³ tn Grk “at the last of the times.”

⁴ tn Grk “give an account to.”

⁵ tn Grk “the one”; the referent (Jesus Christ) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
