227. E.g., Ker 2000:89; Smit 2002:242. Bitner 2015b:265–71, combining indefinite pronouns in this text, suggests this is Crispus, Apollos’s alleged advocate. Barrett 1968:91, believes Cephas’s party is in view.

236. Terms such as “temple,” “day,” burning, and associating the righteous with precious materials and wicked with flammable products, make Malachi a possible informant to Paul’s words. cf. Proctor 1993:11–13; Frayer-Griggs 2013b:523–24; Williams 2001:264–65, 269–72.

238. In 3:15 ζημιόω can refer to punishment or suffering loss. Given the reward in 3:14, the latter is preferred (Yinger 1999:218–19).
239. Contrast Oberholtzer 1988:326. See further, Oropeza 8/2016.
240. In this apocalyptic context, σῴζω does not merely mean escape, as though fleeing from a burning house. The person is saved from divine wrath and final condemnation (1:18; 5:5; 9:22; 15:2; 2 Cor 2:15; Rom 5:9).
241. On Paul’s concept “in vain,” see Oropeza 2009:148.
242. Philo similarly mentions Jews who assimilate and abandon their religious traditions to gain social prominence in foreign lands (Jos. 254); his nephew Tiberius Julius Alexander exemplifies such apostasy (Josephus Ant. 20.100).

246. Although this purification is sometimes understood as purgatory (see Gregory the Great, Dial. 4.39; Montague 2011:76), it refers to an event taking place at Christ’s return, not a postmortem state between heaven and hell (Frayer-Griggs 2013b:526).
247 “By fire” (“ἐν πυρὶ” 3:13) and “as through fire” (“ὡς διὰ πυρός” 3:15) should probably be understood in an instrumental sense. Notice BDAG 1103, regarding “as” (ὡς): “marking the manner in which someth. Proceeds . . . corresponding to οὕτως=‘so, in such a way’ . . . as (one, in an attempt to save oneself, must go) through fire (and therefore suffer fr. burns).”

254. Rightly, Konradt 2003:278.
255. See “destroy” (φθείρω) in end-time judgment in Jude 10; 2 Pet 2:12. The term can alternatively mean “to corrupt” in a moral sense (Liu 2013:122–23), and so there is a possible play on the word φθείρω: “if anyone corrupts God’s temple, God will destroy that person.”
256. Cf. Thiselton 2000:318.
257. In 3:18 γενέσθω may be imperative or ingressive aorist indicating the start of the act (Thistelton 2000:321).
258. Paul refers to God as ὁ δρασσόμενος (“the one who catches”), but Job 5:13 uses ὁ καταλαμβάνων, which is similar in meaning. His version may reflect a Hebraizing of the LXX or a different Greek variant (see Stanley 1992:189–92). In any case δράσσομαι (more than καταλαμβάνω) reflects the ease of this activity (Inkelaar 2011:288). Job 5:13(LXX) uses “cleverness” (φρόνησις) instead of “craftiness” (πανουργία). Paul’s πανουργία may be influenced by Job 5:12, which states that God changes the counsel of “the crafty ones” (πανούργων).
