Footnotes

  1. 20 No verb is expressed in this verse, but the verb “to be” is implied by the Greek construction. Literally “suffering and distress on everyone …”
  2. 21 Grk “every soul of man.”
  3. 22 Paul uses the term Greek here and in v. 10 to refer to non-Jews, i.e., Gentiles.
  4. 23 Grk “but even,” to emphasize the contrast. The second word has been omitted since it is somewhat redundant in English idiom.
