NET © Notes |
1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate that this follows from the preceding action. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. 2 sn You will be blessed. God notes and approves of such generosity. 3 sn The passive verb will be repaid looks at God’s commendation. |
