# we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life
2017-12-12 06:13:24 +00:00
The people to whom God has made promises are spoken of as if they were heirs, inheriting property and wealth from a family member. Here "hope" means "a confident expectation." Alternate translation: "we might become like God's heirs, confidently waiting to inherit eternal life" or "we might have the confident expectation that God will cause us to live forever" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
