1 tn Grk “First.” Paul never mentions a second point, so J. B. Phillips translated “I must begin by telling you….”

2 tn Grk “remember you, always asking.”

3 tn Grk “succeed in coming to you in the will of God.”

4 tn Grk “abounded unto.”

5 tn Grk “For to wish is present in/with me, but not to do it.”

6 tn Grk “And it will be in the very place.”

7 sn A quotation from Hos 1:10.

8 sn A quotation from 1 Kgs 19:10, 14.

9 tn Verses 30-31 form one long sentence in the Greek but have been divided into two distinct sentences for clarity in English.

10 sn The spelling Epenetus is also used by NIV, NLT; the name is alternately spelled Epaenetus (NASB, NKJV, NRSV).

11 tn Grk “first fruit.” This is a figurative use referring to Epenetus as the first Christian convert in the region.

12 tn Grk “Asia”; in the NT this always refers to the Roman province of Asia, made up of about one-third of the west and southwest end of modern Asia Minor. Asia lay to the west of the region of Phrygia and Galatia. The words “the province of” are supplied to indicate to the modern reader that this does not refer to the continent of Asia.
