Bible Note: Greetings Doc! Sorry for the delay! I had to work! :-) I am comfortable with those translations. 'Proetoimazo' speaks of the works that God has prepared in advance to be our normal mode of conduct 'peripateo'. If one wanted to be less literal, one could probably translate them a little differently, but these translations are fairly literal. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
