[3:2]  ¹ tn Grk “much in every way.”

[3:2]  ² tc ‡ Most witnesses (א A D² 33 Ï) have γάρ (gar) after μέν (men), though some significant Alexandrian and Western witnesses lack the conjunction (B D* G Ψ 81 365 1506 2464* pc latt). A few mss have γάρ, but not μέν (6 1739 1881). γάρ was frequently added by scribes as a clarifying conjunction, making it suspect here. NA²⁷ has the γάρ in brackets, indicating doubt as to its authenticity.

[3:2]  tn Grk “first indeed that.”

[3:2]  ³ tn Grk “they were.”

[3:2]  ⁴ tn The referent of λόγια (logia, “oracles”) has been variously understood: (1) BDAG 598 s.v. λόγιον takes the term to refer here to “God’s promises to the Jews”; (2) some have taken this to refer more narrowly to the national promises of messianic salvation given to Israel (so S. L. Johnson, Jr., “Studies in Romans: Part VII: The Jews and the Oracles of God,” BSac 130 [1973]: 245); (3) perhaps the most widespread interpretation sees the term as referring to the entire OT generally.

[3:31]  ⁵ tn Grk “render inoperative.”

[3:31]  ⁶ tn Grk “but” (Greek ἀλλά, alla).

[5:3]  ⁷ tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[10:7]  ⁸ sn A quotation from Deut 30:13.

[12:17]  ⁹ tn Here ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") is used as a generic and refers to both men and women.

[16:3]  ¹⁰ sn On Prisca and Aquila see also Acts 18:2, 18, 26; 1 Cor 16:19; 2 Tim 4:19. In the NT “Priscilla” and “Prisca” are the same person. The author of Acts uses the full name Priscilla, while Paul uses the diminutive form Prisca.
