Read in Logos

Footnotes

  1. 7 Grk “born of the seed” (an idiom).
  2. 8 Grk “according to the flesh,” indicating Jesus’ earthly life, a reference to its weakness. This phrase implies that Jesus was more than human; otherwise it would have been sufficient to say that he was a descendant of David, cf. L. Morris, Romans, 44.
