Footnotes

  1. 7 Or “revilers”; λοίδορος defines the term as “reviler, abusive person.” Because the term “abusive” without further qualification has become associated in contemporary English with both physical and sexual abuse, the qualifier “verbally” has been supplied in the translation.
  2. 8 Grk “and some [of you] were these.”
  3. 9 The external evidence in support of the reading Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ (Iēsou Christou, “Jesus Christ”) is quite impressive: 𝔓11vid,46 א B Cvid D* P 33 81 104 365 629 630 1739 1881 2464 lat bo as well as several fathers, while the reading with merely Ἰησοῦ has significantly poorer support (A D2 Ψ 𝔐 sa). Although the wording of the original could certainly have been expanded, it is also possible that Χριστοῦ as a nomen sacrum could have accidentally dropped out. Although the latter is not as likely under normal circumstances, in light of the early and widespread witnesses for the fuller expression, the original wording seems to have been Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
