Galatia 4:2

4:2 But he is under guardians ¹  and managers until the date set by his ²  father.

Galatia 5:16

5:16 But I say, live ³  by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh. ⁴ 

[4:2]  ¹ tn The Greek term translated “guardians” here is ἐπίτροπος (epitropo"), whose semantic domain overlaps with that of παιδαγωγός (paidagwgo") according to L&N 36.5.

[4:2]  ² tn Grk “the,” but the Greek article is used here as a possessive pronoun (ExSyn 215).

[5:16]  ³ tn Grk “walk” (a common NT idiom for how one conducts one’s life or how one behaves).

[5:16]  ⁴ tn On the term “flesh” (once in this verse and twice in v. 17) see the note on the same word in Gal 5:13.
