1 tn Grk “come again.”

2 tn Or “as though God were begging.”

3 tn Or “we beg you.”

4 tn Grk “in every way for every generosity,” or “he will always make you rich enough to be generous at all times” (L&N 57.29).

5 tn The two different words for labor are translated “in hard work and toil” by L&N 42.48.

6 tn Grk “in cold and nakedness.” Paul does not mean complete nakedness, however, which would have been repugnant to a Jew; he refers instead to the lack of sufficient clothing, especially in cold weather. A related word is used to 1 Cor 4:11, also in combination with experiencing hunger and thirst.

7 tn In Acts 9:25 the same basket used in Paul’s escape is called a σπυρίς (spuri"), a basket larger than a κόφινος (kofinos). It was very likely made out of rope, so the translation “rope-basket” is used.

8 tn Grk “who.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
