One is to be declared righteous in the opinion of God and one is to be declared righteous in the opinion of other people. A person is not justified according to God by their actions. Abraham was declared righteous according to God by his faith. He was declared righteous according to other people when his actions showed his faith, by being willing to offer up his son Isaac as a sacrifice to God.

It is also possible to translate this as "Yet someone will say, 'You have faith, and I have works. Show me your faith without works, and I will show you my faith by my works.'" The length of this hypothetical statement can have significant theological implications. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hypo]]) + +The words "Show me your faith without works, and I will show you my faith by my works" are hard to understand.

I have" + +Some people think that the words "you" and "I" are metonyms for "some people" and "other people."

If the next sentence is also what "someone may say," it could be translated "Some people show their faith without works, and other people show their faith by their works. Both have faith." In both cases, the reader will understand only if you add the extra sentence. It is probably best to translate as the ULB does.

(See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/christ]]) +Genealogies are lists that record a person's ancestors or descendants. Jews used genealogies to choose the right man to become king. They did this because only a son of a king could normally become king. They also showed from what tribe and family they came. For example, priests came from the tribe of Levi and the family of Aaron. ## Links: ## diff --git a/tit/span.md b/tit/span.md index 1dc2df4ba5..9c96fe32b7 100644 --- a/tit/span.md +++ b/tit/span.md @@ -1,9 +1,9 @@ -Old version of [tit\02\11.md](../../v11/tit/02/11.md) line number 5 has a snippet that spans 2 verses: -* [Verse: 11](../tit/02/11.md) -* [Verse: 12](../tit/02/12.md) +Old version of [zep\02\11.md](../../v11/zep/02/11.md) line number 5 has a snippet that spans 2 verses: +* [Verse: 11](../zep/02/11.md) +* [Verse: 12](../zep/02/12.md) -Old version of [tit\03\12.md](../../v11/tit/03/12.md) line number 9 has a snippet that spans 2 verses: -* [Verse: 12](../tit/03/12.md) -* [Verse: 13](../tit/03/13.md) \ No newline at end of file +Old version of [zep\03\12.md](../../v11/zep/03/12.md) line number 9 has a snippet that spans 2 verses: +* [Verse: 12](../zep/03/12.md) +* [Verse: 13](../zep/03/13.md) \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/zec/04/intro.md b/zec/04/intro.md index ee27817230..6d1d3e745c 100644 --- a/zec/04/intro.md +++ b/zec/04/intro.md @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ #### Structure and formatting #### -This chapter is written mainly in prose about the fifth vision, which is about the golden lampstand and olive trees. +This chapter is written mainly in prose about the fifth vision, which is about the golden lampstand olive trees. #### Special concepts in this chapter #### diff --git a/zec/14/19.md b/zec/14/19.md index 51a6244b19..81fca694f4 100644 --- a/zec/14/19.md +++ b/zec/14/19.md @@ -1,4 +1,8 @@ # General Information: These verses continue the description of the final war for the city of Jerusalem and of how God will save her. +* [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/punish]] +* [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/names/egypt]] +* [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/nation]] +* [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/other/festival]] diff --git a/zec/front/intro.md b/zec/front/intro.md index 3e4c327d21..a12f240368 100644 --- a/zec/front/intro.md +++ b/zec/front/intro.md @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ - Four horns and four craftsmen (1:18–21) - The measuring line (2:1–13) - The priest in filthy clothes (3:1–10) - - The golden lampstand and olive trees (4:1–14) + - The golden lampstand olive trees (4:1–14) - The flying scroll (5:1–4) - The woman in a basket (5:5–11) - Four chariots (6:1–8) @@ -53,4 +53,4 @@ Zechariah presented the Messiah as both a king and a shepherd.
