Yes Moon,
That works well; I like it.

I remember experimenting with "for [although] you are not under law, you are
under grace." That was where I was before I sent you the translation you
cite, which developed a point from the BAGD (about confirmation).

I see that you also initiated some interesting discussions on B-Greek during
that time.

Take care,
Mark
