2.1 KiB
Raw Blame History

Connecting Statement:

Paul continues to remind the people that all people are wicked.

But it is to the extent of your hardness and unrepentant heart

Paul uses a metaphor to compare a person who refuses to obey God to something hard, like a stone. He also uses the metonym "heart" to represent the whole person. AT: "It is because you refuse to listen and repent" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)

hardness and unrepentant heart

This is a doublet that you can combine as "unrepentant heart." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet)

you are storing up for yourself wrath

The phrase "storing up" implies a metaphor that usually refers to a person gathering his treasures and putting them in a safe place. Paul says, instead of treasures, that the person is gathering God's punishment. The longer they go without repenting, the more severe the punishment. AT: "you are making your punishment worse" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)

on the day of wrath ... the day of the revelation of God's righteous judgment

Both of these phrases refer to the same day. AT: "when God shows everyone that he is angry and that he judges all people fairly" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet)

pay back

"give a fair reward or punishment"

to every person the same measure of his actions

have sought

This means that they act in a way that will lead to a positive decision from God on judgment day.

praise, honor, and incorruptibility

They want God to praise and honor them, and they want to never die.

incorruptibility
