Romans 3:26

Context
3:26 This was 1  also to demonstrate 2  his righteousness in the present time, so that he would be just 3  and the justifier of the one who lives because of Jesus’ faithfulness. 4 

Romans 13:11

Context
Motivation to Godly Conduct

13:11 And do this 5  because we know 6  the time, that it is already the hour for us to awake from sleep, for our salvation is now nearer than when we became believers.

1 tn The words “This was” have been repeated from the previous verse to clarify that this is a continuation of that thought. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

2 tn Grk “toward a demonstration,” repeating and expanding the purpose of God’s action in v. 25a.

3 tn Or “righteous.”

4 tn Or “of the one who has faith in Jesus.” See note on “faithfulness of Jesus Christ” in v. 22 for the rationale behind the translation “Jesus’ faithfulness.”

5 tn Grk “and this,” probably referring to the command to love (13:8-10); hence, “do” is implied from the previous verses.

6 tn The participle εἰδότες (eidotes) has been translated as a causal adverbial participle.
