NET © Notes |
1 tn Grk “writing by their hand” (an idiom for sending a letter). 2 tn Grk “The apostles.” The word “from” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied to indicate the sender of the letter. 3 tn Grk “brothers,” but “your” is supplied to specify the relationship, since without it “brothers” could be understood as vocative in English. 4 tn Grk “to the brothers who are from the Gentiles.” 5 sn Antioch was a city in Syria (not Antioch in Pisidia). 6 tn Grk “and Syria,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more. |
