{To wit, that} (h(9373) hoti). Latin puts it _quoniam quidem_.
It is an unclassical idiom, but occurs in the papyri and
inscriptions (Moulton, _Prol_., p. 212; Robertson, _Grammar_, p.
1033). It is in Es 4:14 . See also 2Co 11:21 2Th 2:2 . It
probably means "how that." {Not reckoning} (m(8820)logizomenos).
What Jesus did (his death for us) stands to our credit ( Ro
8:32 ) if we make our peace with God. This is our task, "the word
of reconciliation," that we may receive "the righteousness of
God" and be adopted into the family of God.
