¹ tn The Greek term here is οἰκέτης (oiketh"), often used of a servant in a household (who would have been a slave).

² tn Grk “being subject,” but continuing the sense of command from vs. 13.

³ tn Grk “whose,” referring to the wives.

⁴ tn Or “adornment.”

⁵ tn The word “jewelry” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied to indicate that gold ornaments or jewelry is intended; otherwise the reader might assume wearing gold-colored clothing was forbidden.
