Footnotes

646

Hebrew ha-yoh yihyeh. Infinitive absolute + incomplete: to become, he is. He is and is to become. As Jesus has been, is, and is coming.

647

Strong’s #6099, atsum. Mighty in number, countless. It’s no coincidence that this and its related verb atsom (#6105) to be vast, numerous are denominatives of etsem (#6106) bone.

For it has been written, ‘Zoe-living myself,’ is saying Master, ‘that to myself will bow the whole knee, and the whole tongue will confess the Theos.’” Romans 14:11 literal
