Notes: In RV TI2 1:5 · LV TI2 1:5 · Read together TI2 1:5 the phrase ὑπόμνησιν λαμβάνω may be interpreted as a causative passive phrase (compare λαμβάνω in 90.63: ἀπολαμβάνω / 90.63: ἐπιλαμβάνομαι / 90.63: λαμβάνω / 90.63: μεταλαμβάνω and 90.85: λαμβάνω), for example, ὑπόμνησιν λαβὼν τῆς ἐν σοὶ ἀνυποκρίτου πίστεως ‘I have been reminded of your sincere faith,’ but it may also be appropriately rendered as an instance of active remembering and accordingly translated as ‘I remember the sincere faith that you have.’|It is also possible to interpret ὑπόμνησις in RV PE2 1:13 · LV PE2 1:13 · Read together PE2 1:13 as meaning simply ‘to remember,’ and therefore one may translate as ‘to stir you up as you remember.’
