And God, who knows the heart, 1  has testified 2  to them by giving them the Holy Spirit just as he did to us, 3 

NET © Notes

sn The expression who knows the heart means “who knows what people think.”

tn Or “has borne witness.”

sn By giving them…just as he did to us. The allusion is to the events of Acts 10-11, esp. 10:44-48 and Peter’s remarks in 11:15-18.
