The Message of Reconciliation
5:11Therefore, because we know the fear of the Lord,18 we try to persuade19 people,20 but we are well known21 to God, and I hope we are well known to your consciences too.
Footnotes
- 18 Or “because we know what it means to fear the Lord.”
- 19 The present tense of πείθομεν (peithomen) has been translated as a conative present.
- 20 Grk “men”; but ἄνθρωπος (anthrōpos) is generic here since clearly both men and women are in view (Paul did not attempt to win only men to the gospel he preached).
- 21 Or “clearly evident.” φανερόω 2.b.β has “θεῷ πεφανερώμεθα we are well known to God 2 Cor 5:11a, cp. 11b; 11:6 v.l.”
