Key for above GNTs: yellow:punctuation differs (from our SR-GNT base).


TSNTyndale Study Notes:

2:19-24 Paul commends Timothy, whom he hopes to send to the Philippians in the near future. Timothy had accompanied Paul on his first trip to Philippi (see Acts 16:1-3, 12; 17:15; 18:5; cp. Acts 19:22). Timothy stood out as a person whose whole life was sacrificially devoted to what matters to Jesus Christ and to the welfare of his people.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

ὡς πατρὶ τέκνον, σὺν ἐμοὶ ἐδούλευσεν εἰς τὸ εὐαγγέλιον

as ˱unto˲_/a/_father /a/_child_‹serves› with me ˱he˲_served in the gospel

The point of this comparison is that children learn from their fathers and try to follow and imitate them as they work alongside them. Paul was not Timothy’s biological father, but he uses this simile to illustrate how Timothy worked alongside him and learned from him as, together, they advanced the gospel. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent comparison or express this meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [he learned from me and did what I did as he served with me in the gospel]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

τὴν δὲ δοκιμὴν αὐτοῦ γινώσκετε

the but provenness ˱of˲_him ˱you_all˲_/are/_knowing

If your language does not use an abstract noun for this idea, you can express the idea behind the abstract noun worth with an adjective such as “valuable” or in some other way. Alternate translation: [But you know how valuable Timothy is]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

εἰς τὸ εὐαγγέλιον

in the gospel

Here, the gospel means the work of advancing the gospel. If it would be helpful in your language, consider stating this explicitly. Alternate translation: [in gospel work] or [in working to spread the gospel] or [in the work of telling people the good news about Jesus]
