1:6 Wherein (b-1) Or 'in which [time].' trials, (c-17) Or temptations.

Verse 8

1:8 on (d-7) 'On whom' does not, I think, refer to 'ye exult.' It may refer to both 'looking' and 'believing,' which is, I think, the natural construction. If not, it is connected simply with 'looking.' glory, (e-24) Lit. 'and glorified.' The expression relates to 'joy.'
