Kolose 2:22

2:22 These are all destined to perish with use, founded as they are ¹  on human commands and teachings. ² 

Kolose 3:16

3:16 Let the word of Christ ³  dwell in you richly, teaching and exhorting one another with all wisdom, singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, all with grace ⁴  in your hearts to God.

[2:22]  ¹ tn The expression “founded as they are” brings out the force of the Greek preposition κατά (kata).

[2:22]  ² tn Grk “The commands and teachings of men.”

[3:16]  ³ tc Since “the word of Christ” occurs nowhere else in the NT, two predictable variants arose: “word of God” and “word of the Lord.” Even though some of the witnesses for these variants are impressive (κυρίου [kuriou, “of the Lord”] in א* I 1175 pc bo; θεοῦ [qeou, “of God”] in A C* 33 104 323 945 al), the reading Χριστοῦ (Cristou, “of Christ”) is read by an excellent cross-section of witnesses (Ì⁴⁶ א² B C² D F G Ψ 075 1739 1881 Ï lat sa). On both internal and external grounds, Χριστοῦ is strongly preferred.

[3:16]  ⁴ tn Grk “with grace”; “all” is supplied as it is implicitly related to all the previous instructions in the verse.
