Footnotes

  1. 12 Grk “hardness.” Concerning this imagery, see Jer 4:4; Ezek 3:7; 16:3.
  2. 13 Grk “in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God.”
  3. 14 Grk “who.” The relative pronoun was converted to a personal pronoun and, because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
  4. 15 Or “will render,” “will recompense.” In this context Paul is setting up a hypothetical situation, not stating that salvation is by works.
  5. 16 A quotation from Ps 62:12; Prov 24:12; a close approximation to Matt 16:27.
