Footnotes
14
accepted is literally 'holy' or 'made holy'. unaccepted is literally 'unclean'. In this verse, these terms refer to the acceptance/legitimacy before God of the relationship to these family members. This does not mean that any aspect of salvation or eternal hope is given to these family members because of their family relationship to a believer.
