2 Korintus 2:5

2:5 But if anyone has caused sadness, he has not saddened me alone, but to some extent (not to exaggerate) ¹  he has saddened all of you as well.

Roma 11:25

11:25 For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, ²  so that you may not be conceited: A partial hardening has happened to Israel ³  until the full number ⁴  of the Gentiles has come in.

Roma 11:1

Israel’s Rejection not Complete nor Final

11:1 So I ask, God has not rejected his people, has he? Absolutely not! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.

Kolose 1:18

1:18 He is the head of the body, the church, as well as the beginning, the firstborn ⁵  from among the dead, so that he himself may become first in all things. ⁶ 

[2:5]  ¹ tn Or “(not to say too much)”; Grk “(not to burden you [with words]).”

[11:25]  ² tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:13.

[11:25]  ³ tn Or “Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.”

[11:25]  ⁴ tn Grk “fullness.”

[1:18]  ⁵ tn See the note on the term “firstborn” in 1:15. Here the reference to Jesus as the “firstborn from among the dead” seems to be arguing for a chronological priority, i.e., Jesus was the first to rise from the dead.

[1:18]  ⁶ tn Grk “in order that he may become in all things, himself, first.”
