         Comments: Because of the elliptical nature of this expression in {S:04601503100008}, the semantic implications of νή are often omitted, or the implication of νή is introduced by employing an overt declaration, as in Today’s English Version, “The pride I have in you, in our life in union with Christ Jesus our Lord, makes me declare this.”
