Colossians 1
3. EUXARISTOUMEN TWi QEWi KAI PATRI TOU KURIOU hHMWN IHSOU XRISTOU PANTOTE
PERI hUMWN PROSEUXOMENOI
4. AKOUSANTES THN PISTIN hUMWN EN XRISTWi IHSOU KAI THN AGAPHN THN EIS
PANTAS TOUS hAGIOUS
5. DIA THN ELPIDA THN APOKEIMENHN hUMIN EN TOIS OURANOIS....
It is possible to regard DIA THN ELPIDA as giving a reason for the thanks
and prayers given for the Colossians? The NIV seems to translate the phrase
as the hope giving a source for the faith and love and the KJV seems to
regard it as a reason for thanks. In my opinion, the latter would seem to
fit the context of an introduction better.
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
