‏ 1 Peter 1:20

20 He was foreknown ^{▼▼tn Grk “who was foreknown,” describing Christ in v. 19. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.} before the foundation of the world but ^{▼▼tn Greek emphasizes the contrast between these two clauses more than can be easily expressed in English.} was manifested in these last times ^{▼▼tn Grk “at the last of the times.”} for your sake.
