## translationNotes
* **testify** - "declare" or "serve as a witness"
* **to every man who is circumcised** - "to every person who has become a Jew." Paul is using circumcision as a mmetonym for being Jewish. (See: [[en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_metonymy]])
* **obliged** - "bound" or "constrained" or "enslaved"
* **to do** - "to obey"
* **You are alienated from Christ** - "You have ended your relationship with Christ"
* **seek to be justified by the law** - "look for ways to have God declare you good by obeying the law." The law is metonymy for Judaism.
* **you have fallen away from grace** - Paul is comparing a person who decides that he does not need or want the grace of Christ to someone who falls from a good high place to a bad lower place. (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_metaphor]])
