## translationNotes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **As for you** - In 2:24-26 the word "you" is plural and refers to the people John is writing to. (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_you]])
|
||
|
|
* **let that which you have heard from the beginning remain in you** - "remember and believe what you have heard from the beginning." How they heard it, what they heard, and what "the beginning" means can be made explicit: “continue to trust what we have taught you about Jesus just as you have trusted since you first became believers.” (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_explicit]])
|
||
|
|
* **that which you have heard from the beginning** - This can be translated as "what we taught you about Jesus when you first became believers."
|
||
|
|
* **If that which you heard from the beginning remains in you** - "If you continue to trust what we taught you"
|
||
|
|
* **also remain in the Son and in the Father** - See how this was translated in [[:en:bible:notes:1jn:02:04]]
|
||
|
|
* **And this is the promise which he promised us; eternal life** - "And this is what he promised to give us; eternal life" or "And he has promised to cause us to live forever."
|
||
|
|
* **he promised us** - Here the word "he" is emphatic and refers to Christ. The word "us" refers to John and all believers, including those he was writing to. (See: [[en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_inclusive]])
|
||
|
|
* **would lead you astray** - "would try to make you believe a lie" or "want to draw you away from God and His truth"
