1 tn Or “he was obligated.”
2 tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 2:11.
3 tn Or “propitiation.”
4 tn Grk “the one”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
5 tn Grk “I have begotten you”; see Heb 1:5.
sn A quotation from Ps 2:7.
6 tn Grk “the main point of the things being said.”
7 sn An allusion to Ps 110:1; see Heb 1:3, 13.
8 tn Grk “the second tent.”
9 tn Or perhaps “the unintentional sins of the people”; Grk “the ignorances of the people.” Cf. BDAG 13 s.v. ἀγνόημα, “sin committed in ignorance/unintentionally.” This term seems to be simply a synonym for “sins” (cf. Heb 5:2) and does not pick up the distinction made in Num 15:22-31 between unwitting sin and “high-handed” sin. The Day of Atonement ritual in Lev 16 covered all the sins of the people, not just the unwitting ones.
10 tn Grk “But Christ, when he came,” introducing a sentence that includes all of Heb 9:11-12. The main construction is “Christ, having come…, entered…, having secured…,” and everything else describes his entrance.
11 tn Grk “and not that he might offer,” continuing the previous construction.
