Philippians 1:29

Context
1:29 For it has been granted to you 1  not only to believe in Christ but also to suffer for him,

Philippians 2:20

Context
2:20 For there is no one here like him who will readily demonstrate his deep concern for you. 2 

1 tn Grk “For that which is on behalf of Christ has been granted to you – namely, not only to believe in him but also to suffer for him.” The infinitive phrases are epexegetical to the subject, τὸ ὑπὲρ Χριστοῦ (to Juper Cristou), which has the force of “the on-behalf-of-Christ thing,” or “the thing on behalf of Christ.” To translate this in English requires a different idiom.

2 tn Grk “For I have no one who is like-minded who will genuinely be concerned for your welfare.”
