HEBREWS

  2.7 "a little lower than the angels." Or "for a little while lower

  than the angels." 3.11 "rest." Or "resting place."

  JAMES

  1.9 "Let the humble . .. humiliation." A variation on the familiar theme that God can easily bring down the rich and powerful and exalt the poor and weak.

  1.12-13 "trial," "tempted." We pass from one to the other sense of the Greek peirazo, peirasmos.

  3.6 "wheel of creation." Or "round of existence."

  5.6 "Is he not against you!" Or, without the question mark: "He does not resist you."

  1 PETER

  3.1 "even without the word." The hope is that they may be influ­enced to act like Christians without being actually convened. But the sense may be "without a word being spoken." 5.13 "Babylon." That is, Rome.

  lPETER

  "of the flesh" is not in the text. Supplied for the sake of clarity.

  "full of adultery." The Greek moichalis properly means, how­ever, an adulterous woman, but this is hard to construe with "full of." The phrase might be wrested into meaning "on the lookout for an adulterous woman."

  1 JOHN

  "the Lord." Greek: "he." So also in 3.16.

  4.2 "The Spirit of God is known." Or "'. ou know the Spirit of God."

  "the three are at one." Or "the three agree."

  2 JOHN

  1 "lady." She is surely not a person; this is a letter from the elder (leader) of one church to another church.

  THE REVELATION OF JOHN

  22.21 Or "with his saints."
