## translationNotes
* **God is rich in mercy** - "God is abundant in mercy" or "God acts very kind to us"
* **because of his great love with which he loved us** - "because of his great love for us" or "because he loves us very much"
* **while we were dead in trespasses, he brought us to new life** - This shows how a sinful person is unable to obey God until he is given new spiritual life just like a dead person is unable to respond physically unless he is raised from the dead. (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_metaphor]])
* **he brought us to new life together with Christ** - God has given us new life in christ.
* **by grace you have been saved** - "God saved us because of his great kindness toward us."
* **and raised us up together and made us sit together in the heavenly places with Christ Jesus.** - Just as he already raised christ, he will raise us up too and be with Christ in heaven.
* **in the ages to come** - "in the future"
