that ye should walk worthy of God, who callsa you to his own kingdom and glory.

JND Translation Notes

+

a

Or "the God who calls you." but neither gives exactly the Greek, because "of God, who calls" makes God stand by himself as such; and "the God who calls" makes the calling too distinctive, so that, but for other reasons, one might think there was another God. The Greek preserves the absoluteness of God, and adds the calling quality.

that ye should walk worthily of God that calleth you unto his own kingdom and glory.
