1Jn 5:3 AUTH GAR ESTIN hH AGAPH TOU QEOU hINA TAS ENTOLAS AUTOU
THRWMEN KAI AI ENTOLAI AUTOU BAREIAI OUK EISIN
1. How I should understand hINA clause? As 'in order that (we may
observe the commandments)'?
2. What does AUTH refer to? To the idea mentioned in the preceding
verse? Or 'The love of God is this, that ~'
3. Does 'ESTIN' copulative have nuance more than 'is'?
Thanks for your help. I hope this is not a beginner's confusion.
Oun Kwon.
