NET © Notes

sn There is a double connective here that cannot be easily preserved in English: “consequently therefore,” emphasizing the conclusion of what he has been arguing.

tn Grk “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Grk “So then, he has mercy on whom he desires, and he hardens whom he desires.”
