1 Korintus 16:9

16:9 because a door of great opportunity stands wide open for me, ¹³  but there are many opponents.

[1:13]  ¹ tn Questions prefaced with μή (mh) in Greek anticipate a negative answer. This can sometimes be indicated by using a “tag” at the end in English (here the tag is “was he?”).

[1:13]  ² tn This third question marks a peak in which Paul’s incredulity at the Corinthians’ attitude is in focus. The words “in fact” have been supplied in the translation to make this rhetorical juncture clear.

[5:6]  ³ sn In this passage (5:6-8) yeast represents the presence of evil within the church, specifically the immoral person described in 5:1-5 and mentioned again in 5:13.

[5:6]  ⁴ tn Grk “a little yeast leavens.”

[7:27]  ⁵ tn Grk “should not seek a wife.”

[9:8]  ⁶ tn Or “only according to human authority”; Grk “saying these things according to men.”

[11:19]  ⁷ tn Grk “those approved may be evident among you.”

[14:39]  ⁸ tc ‡ μου (mou, “my”) is found after ἀδελφοί (adelfoi) in a number of significant witnesses (א A B* D¹ 048 326 1175 2464 al), but lacking in most other witnesses (Ì⁴⁶ B² D* F G Ψ 0243 33 1739 1881 Ï lat). Every other time Paul says “So then, brothers (and sisters)” he adds “my” (ὥστε, ἀδελφοί μου; {wste, adelfoi mou). There is no good reason why scribes would intentionally omit “my” here but not elsewhere. Thus, the longer reading is in conformity with Paul’s general style and as such seems to be scribally motivated. NA²⁷ has the word in brackets, indicating doubt as to its authenticity.

[14:39]  tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.

[14:39]  ⁹ tn Grk “speaking in tongues.” The words “anyone from” are supplied for the sake of clarity.

[15:4]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “he has been raised/is raised,” using a Greek tense that points to the present effect of the act of raising him. But in English idiom the temporal phrase “on the third day” requires a different translation of the verb.

[15:21]  ¹¹ tn Or “through a human being” (a reference to Adam).

[15:21]  ¹² tn Or “through a human being” (a reference to Jesus Christ).

[16:9]  ¹³ tn Grk “for a door has opened wide to me, great and effective.”
