  2. 85 Grk “keeps.” In a context that speaks of “holding on to what you have,” the idea here is one of continued faithful behavior ( τηρέω 3 has “ὁ τηρῶν τὰ ἔργα μου the one who takes my deeds to heart Rv 2:26”).
  3. 86 Or “over the Gentiles” (the same Greek word may be translated “Gentiles” or “nations”).
