Romans 14:14-18

Context
14:14 I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean in itself; still, it is unclean to the one who considers it unclean. 14:15 For if your brother or sister 1  is distressed because of what you eat, 2  you are no longer walking in love. 3  Do not destroy by your food someone for whom Christ died. 14:16 Therefore do not let what you consider good 4  be spoken of as evil. 14:17 For the kingdom of God does not consist of food and drink, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. 14:18 For the one who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by people. 5 

1 tn Grk “brother.”

2 tn Grk “on account of food.”

3 tn Grk “according to love.”

4 tn Grk “do not let your good.”

5 tn Grk “by men”; but ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") is generic here (“people”) since the contrast in context is between God and humanity.
