1 Peter 4:5

Context
4:5 They will face a reckoning before 4  Jesus Christ 5  who stands ready to judge the living and the dead.

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.
