1:5 fellowship (d-4) 'fellowship,' as [1 Corinthians 1:9](../../../kjv/1-corinthians/1/9) . gospel, (e-7) Or 'glad tidings,' as elsewhere.

1:7 righteous (f-4) Or 'I feel it righteous,' 'it is right.' see [Ephesians 6:1](../../../kjv/ephesians/6/1) . grace. (g-43) Or 'fellow-partakers ( *sun-koinonos* , as [Revelation 1:9](../../../kjv/revelation/1/9) ) with me of grace.'

1:26 me (d-10) Or 'as to me.'

1:27 in (e-41) That is, the faith of the gospel being in conflict, they identified themselves with it, and entered into the struggle, 'striving in favour of it.'

1:29 Christ, (f-9) Or 'in behalf of Christ,' the sentence being broken in upon and resumed.
