GAL 4:2 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

ἐπιτρόπους & καὶ οἰκονόμους

guardians & and managers

A guardian was a person who had the role of being responsible for a child. This person’s job was to supervise and care for the child of whom they were in charge to make sure that the child was instructed in what they should do. Use a natural phrase or term in your language for describing this role. If you do not have this role in your culture you could describe it for your readers.

managers

Here, the word stewards refers to people who are entrusted with the role of managing property until the heir is old enough to inherit it.

Alternate translation: [people who manage a child’s possessions]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

προθεσμίας τοῦ πατρός

appointed_time ˱by˲_his father
