Footnotes

  1. Romans 16:21 tn Grk “kinsmen, relatives, fellow countrymen.”
  2. Romans 16:23 tc Most mss (D [F G 629 without “Jesus Christ”] Ψ [630] 1175 1241 1505 1881 M al) include here 16:24 “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you. Amen.” Other mss (P 33 104 365) include the verse after 16:27. The verse is entirely lacking in P46, 61 א A B C 81 1739 2464 co. The strength of the external evidence, combined with uncertainty in other mss over where the verse should be located and the fact that it is a repetition of v. 20b, strongly favors omission of the verse. The present translation follows NA28 in omitting the verse number, a procedure also followed by a number of other modern translations.
