## translationNotes
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* **Christ laid down his life for us** - This expression means "Christ willingly gave his life for us" or "Christ willingly died for us." (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_idiom]])
|
|||
|
* **the world’s goods** - This could be translated as "material possessions like money, food, or clothing."
|
|||
|
* **sees his brother in need** - "and realizes a fellow believer needs help"
|
|||
|
* **and shuts up his heart of compassion from him** - This expression means "but does not show him compassion" or "but does not willingly help him."
|
|||
|
* **how does the love of God remain in him?** - John uses a question to teach his audience. This could be translated as a statement: "God's love is not in him." (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_rquestion]])

|
* **My dear children** - See how you translated this in [[en:bible:notes:1jn:02:01]].
|
|||
|
* **let us not love in word nor in tongue** - The phrases "in word" and "in tongue" mean basically the same thing. They refer to what a person says. This can be translated as "do not just say you love people." (See: [[en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_doublet]] and [[en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_metonymy]])
|
