[2:9]  ¹ sn This verse contains various allusions and quotations from Exod 19:5-6; 23:22 (LXX); Isa 43:20-21; and Mal 3:17.

[3:9]  ² tn Grk “not returning…but blessing,” continuing the sense of command from the preceding.

[3:9]  ³ tn The direct object “others” is omitted but implied in Greek, and must be supplied to suit English style.

[5:10]  ⁴ tc ‡ A few important mss (א B 614 630 1505 pc) lack “Jesus” after “Christ,” while the majority include the name (Ì⁷² A P Ψ 33 1739 Ï latt). However, the inclusion is a natural and predictable expansion on the text. NA²⁷ includes ᾿Ιησοῦ (Ihsou, “Jesus”) in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity. .

[5:10]  ⁵ tn The pronoun “you” is not used explicitly but is clearly implied by the Greek.
