[2:5]  ¹ sn The phrase the world to come means “the coming inhabited earth,” using the Greek term which describes the world of people and their civilizations.

[2:5]  ² sn See the previous reference to the world in Heb 1:6.

[7:20]  ³ sn The Greek text contains an elaborate comparison between v. 20a and v. 22, with a parenthesis (vv. 20b-21) in between; the comparison is literally, “by as much as…by so much” or “to the degree that…to that same degree.”

[9:1]  ⁴ tn Grk “the first” (referring to the covenant described in Heb 8:7, 13). In the translation the referent (covenant) has been specified for clarity.

[10:10]  ⁵ tn Grk “by which will.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[10:27]  ⁶ tn Grk “zeal,” recalling God’s jealous protection of his holiness and honor (cf. Exod 20:5).

[10:27]  sn An allusion to Zeph 1:18.

[10:27]  ⁷ tn Grk “the enemies.”

[10:27]  sn An allusion to Isa 26:11.

[11:40]  ⁸ tn The Greek phrasing emphasizes this point by negating the opposite: “so that they would not be made perfect without us.”

[13:16]  ⁹ tn Grk “neglect doing good and fellowship.”
