So here is my opinion on this matter: It is to your advantage, since you made a good start last year both in your giving and your desire to give,

[In this state] there cannot be [such distinctions as] Greek [i.e., Gentile] and Jew; circumcised people and non-circumcised people; barbarian and Scythian [Note: These last two words refer to foreigners whose language was unintelligible and who were uncivilized heathens], or slave and free person; but Christ is all [that is important] and [He is] in all [of His people].

At last our desire to have news of you was so strong that, while we ourselves were waiting at Athens,

Erastus was stopping at Corinth; but Trophimus, when I last saw him was at Miletus, ill.

God, who formerly spoke in many portions and in many ways to the fathers by the prophets, spoke to us in these last days by a Son,

has in these last days spoken [with finality] to us in [the person of One who is by His character and nature] His Son [namely Jesus], whom He appointed heir and lawful owner of all things, through whom also He created the universe [that is, the universe as a space-time-matter continuum].

But God says [this] about the Son [Psa. 97:7], "Your throne [i.e. kingdom], O God [Note: This term here is applied to Jesus], will last forever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter [i.e., the standard for ruling] of your kingdom.

but day by day, as long as "Today" shall last, continue to encourage one another, so that not one of you may be hardened by sin's deceiving ways,

who was indeed foreknown before the foundation of the world, but was manifested in the last times because of you.

But the word of the Lord will last forever," that is, the good news that has been brought to you.

Last of all, see that you are all in agreement; feeling for one another, loving one another like brothers, full of pity, without pride:

For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein and overcome, the last state is become worse with them than the first.

knowing this first, that in the last days mockers shall come with mockery, walking after their own lusts,

Little children, it is the last hour: and as ye heard that antichrist cometh, even now have there arisen many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last hour.
