Footnotes

21 The terms “however” and “but” in this sentence were supplied in order to emphasize the contrast.
22 The articular noun τῇ ἀπεκδύσει (tē apekdusei) is a noun which ends in -σις (-sis) and therefore denotes action, i.e., “removal.” Since the head noun is a verbal noun, the following genitive τοῦ σώματος (tou sōmatos) is understood as an objective genitive, receiving the action of the head noun.
23 Grk “in the removal of the body of flesh.” The genitive τῇς σαρκός (tēs sarkos) has been translated as an attributive genitive, “fleshly body.”
24 The second prepositional phrase beginning with ἐν τῇ περιτομῇ (en tē peritomē) is parallel to the prepositional phrase ἐν τῇ ἀπεκδύσει (en tē apekdusei) and gives a further explanation of it. The words “that is” were supplied to bring out this force in the translation.
25 The article with the genitive modifier τῆς πίστεως (tēs pisteōs) is functioning as a possessive pronoun ( ).
26 The genitive τῆς ἐνεργείας (tēs energeias) has been translated as an objective genitive, “faith in the power.”

NLTNew Living Translation

So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority.

When you came to Christ, you were “circumcised,” but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision—the cutting away of your sinful nature. For you were buried with Christ when you were baptized. And with him you were raised to new life because you trusted the mighty power of God, who raised Christ from the dead.
