Ephesians 6:6-8

Context
6:6 not like those who do their work only when someone is watching 1  – as people-pleasers – but as slaves of Christ doing the will of God from the heart. 2  6:7 Obey 3  with enthusiasm, as though serving the Lord 4  and not people, 6:8 because you know that each person, whether slave or free, if he does something good, this 5  will be rewarded by the Lord.

1 tn Grk “not according to eye-service.”

2 tn Grk “from the soul.”

3 tn Though the verb does not appear again at this point in the passage, it is nonetheless implied and supplied in the English translation for the sake of clarity.

4 tn Grk “serving as to the Lord.”

5 sn The pronoun “this” (τοῦτο, touto) stands first in its clause for emphasis, and stresses the fact that God will reward those, who in seeking him, do good.
