Hi Stephen,
First of all, thanks so much for writing this series on Romans. I really appreciate the clarity of your writing, and the fact that you delve so deeply into some of the Greek words.

That may be a fine distinction, but it's surely an important one. How many truths have been obscured due to faulty translations!
