Hebrews 11:3

Context
11:3 By faith we understand that the worlds 1  were set in order at God’s command, 2  so that the visible has its origin in the invisible. 3 

1 tn Grk “ages.” The temporal (ages) came to be used of the spatial (what exists in those time periods). See Heb 1:2 for same usage.

2 tn Grk “by God’s word.”

3 sn The Greek phrasing emphasizes this point by negating the opposite: “so that what is seen did not come into being from things that are visible.”
