4.4 Venit plenitudo temporis. Id est postquam totum spatium illud fuit adimpletum, quo lex durare debuit, tunc misit Deus, etc. Plenitudo temporis. Sciebat quando venire deberet, vel etiam pati, etc. Non est enim hora ejus vel nostra, nisi voluntas ejus. Ante tamen longa series præconum præmittenda erat. Misit Deus Filium. Unde, Ego a Patre exivi, et veni in hunc mundum Joan. 16.. Et tamen de illo dicit Evangelista Joannes: In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est, et mundus eum non cognovit Ibid. 1.. Deinde conjungit: In propria venit. Illuc ergo missus est, ubi erat. Unde et illud Propheta dicit: Cœlum et terram ego impleo Jer. 23.. Quærendum est ergo quomodo intelligatur ista missio. Si ergo sobrie de Dei Filio quæ digna sunt opinemur, ideo missum intelligere debemus, quia ex illo incomprehensibili inenarrabilique secreto majestatis profundæ dedit se comprehendendum mentibus nostris Dei Verbum, non solum cum se exinaniret, sed etiam cum habitaret in nobis. Ex muliere. Usus Hebrææ locutionis mulieres dicit non corruptas, sed feminas. Factum sub lege. Ut appareat circumcisus quasi filius Abrahæ signum habens ejus cui promissus fuerat; in quo impleta est circumcisio: itaque signum jam cesset. Credidit enim Abraham se habiturum filium, in quo benedicerentur omnes gentes: quod jam factum credimus. Ut adoptionem. Id est, ut participes essemus divinæ gloriæ. Sicut enim ipse natura participat, ita ad ipsam videndam nos adoptat. Hinc enim adoptionem recipimus, quod ille unicus Dei Filius non dedignatus est participationem nostræ naturæ, factus ex muliere, ut non solum unigenitus esset, sed etiam primogenitus in multis fratribus fieret. Adoptionem autem dicit, ut distincte intelligamus unicum Dei Filium.

4.4 Venit plenitudo temporis. That it_is postquam totum spatium illud fuit adimpletum, quo lex durare debuit, tunc he_sent God, etc. Plenitudo temporis. Sciebat when venire deberet, or also pati, etc. Non it_is because hora his or nostra, nisi voluntas his. Ante tamen longa series præconum præmittenda was. Misit God Son. Unde, I from Patre exivi, and veni in this_one the_world Yoan. 16.. And tamen about illo dicit Evangelista Yoannes: In mundo was, and mundus through ipsum factus it_is, and mundus him not/no he_knew Ibid. 1.. of_Godnde conyungit: In propria venit. Illuc therefore missus it_is, where was. Unde and illud Propheta he_says: Cœlum and the_earth/land I impleo Yer. 23.. Quærendum it_is therefore how intelligatur ista missio. When/But_if therefore sobrie about of_God Filio which digna are opinemur, ideo missum intelligere debemus, because from illo incomprehensibili inenarrabilique secreto mayestatis profundæ he_gave se comprehendendum mentibus nostris of_God Verbum, not/no solum when/with se exinaniret, but also when/with to_livet in nobis. From muliere. Usus Hebrææ locutionis mulieres dicit not/no corruptas, but feminas. Done under lege. Ut appareat circumcisus as_if son Abrahæ signum habens his cui promissus fuerat; in quo impleta it_is circumcisio: therefore signum yam cesset. Credidit because Abraham se habiturum filium, in quo benedicerentur everyone gentes: that yam done credimus. Ut adoptionem. That it_is, as participes essemus divinæ gloriæ. Sicut because exactly_that/himself natura participat, ita to ipsam videndam we adoptat. Hinc because adoptionem recipimus, that ille unicus of_God Son not/no dedignatus it_is participationem nostræ naturæ, factus from muliere, as not/no solum unigenitus esset, but also primogenitus in multis fratribus fieret. Adoptionem however dicit, as distincte intelligamus unicum of_God Son.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-contrast

δὲ

but

The word But is introducing a contrast between the time prior to when the fullness of time came, which Paul described before this verse, and the time after the fullness of time came, which Paul describes in this verse. Use a natural way in your language for introducing a contrast. Alternate translation: “Instead,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ χρόνου

the fullness ˱of˲_the time

The phrase the fullness of time means “the right time” or “the time that God appointed.” If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: “the right time” or “the designated time” or “the appointed time”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

γενόμενον ἐκ γυναικός

/having/_become of woman

The phrase born from a woman is an idiom which means that someone is human. Because Jesus existed as God before he was born on earth, the emphasis here is that Jesus became human, in addition to being fully God. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent idiom or use plain language. Alternate translation: “having taken on human nature” or “having been born as a human being”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

γενόμενον ὑπὸ νόμον

/having/_become /having/_become under law

The phrase having been born under the law means that Jesus, as a Jew, was under the jurisdiction of the law of Moses and therefore it was necessary that he obey it. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: “having been born under the jurisdiction and requirements of the law of Moses” or “having been born subject to the law of Moses”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὑπὸ νόμον

under law

Here, the word under means “under the authority of” or “under the jurisdiction of.” If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. See how you translated the phrase under the law in 3:23 where Paul uses the word under with the same meaning. Alternate translation: “under the authority of the law” or “under the jurisdiction of the law”
