*Does 8-9 ground 7, and thus 7-9 is the purpose of 4-6; OR is 7 the purpose of 4-6, making 8-9 the ground of 4-7? HOEHNER, ROBERTSON say γαρ is "explanatory," but Calvin takes it as "inferential." *Does 10 ground 8-9 only, or does 10 ground 1-9 (i.e., God saves dead people by grace through faith because we are his workmanship created in Christ for good works; OR we have been saved by grace through faith so that no one may boast because we are his workmanship created in Christ for good works?). A: v. 10 grounds only 8–9, which all goes to Explain v. 7 as Id/Exp (see above) since v. 8's γαρ is explanatory. So: our salvation is God's gift and not of our works because we are His (note the emphatic location of the possessive gen.) workmanship, not our own! * Calvin calls v. 8 an "inference" from what has already come. Can γὰρ function like that? QUESTION: If v. 9 is an Explanation of 8b (and it is), how is "from/of you" related theologically to "from/of law"? Also, what exactly does he mean by ἐργῶν? * v. 8, and v. 5, the two perfect participles σεσῳσμένοι have to be taken in their full force: not only has our salvation been accomplished in the past with its present ongoing effects, but God's part of salvation is the *whole*: from past to present to future it is ALL accomplished by God on our behalf in light of the logic and the passive voice of the verb.
