1 Tim. 1:1 Original reading: "Christ Jesus our confidence" – I followed this suggestion of Mark Thomas, one of the readers for the text team. "Can we go back to 'hope'? Confidence alone doesn’t equal hope. Confidence in the future may. Every translation I looked at used hope, including the Wycliffe Bible. I looked at at least a dozen. Hope and confidence are both key words in the translation notes of Door43."
