UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

διὸ

therefore

Connecting Statement:

Peter uses Therefore to introduce the purpose of his letter. In order to encourage his readers to do everything he has said in 1:5–10, and especially because of the promise in 1:11, he wants to keep reminding them about these things. Use a natural form in your language to show that this introduces a result or purpose for saying what came before. Alternate translation: [Because these things are very important]

Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns

τούτων

these_‹things›

Here, these things refers back to what Peter has stated in the previous verses, specifically to faith, goodness, knowledge, self-control, endurance, godliness, brotherly affection, and love, which Peter mentioned in 1:5–7.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν τῇ παρούσῃ ἀληθείᾳ

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

ἐν τῇ παρούσῃ ἀληθείᾳ

in the being_present truth
