The word "spotlessly" is a metaphor for being without moral fault. Possible meanings are 1) Jesus will not find fault with Timothy or blame him for doing wrong or 2) other people will not find fault with Timothy or blame him for doing wrong. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

Paul speaks of the Colossian believers as if God would move them into a location of perseverance and patience. In reality, he is praying that they will always be joyful and never stop trusting in God and that they will be completely patient as they honor him. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

Paul speaks of the Colossian believers as if God would move them into a location of perseverance and patience. The abstract nouns "perseverance" and "patience" can be translated as the verb "persevere" and the adjective "patient." In reality, he is praying that they will be patient and continue to serve God even when life is difficult. Alternate translation: "glory, so that you will persevere and be patient" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-abstractnouns]])

This background information explains how Mordecai came to live in Susa. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylonia carried him and other exiles away along with Jehoiachin, king of Judah" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-background]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])

The Hebrew text leaves unclear who is being spoken of here. It is perhaps Kish, who seems to have been the great-grandfather of Mordecai. If it was Mordecai himself, then he would be extremely old at the time of the events concerning Esther. Many modern versions leave this matter unclear. A few versions, including the UDB, choose to assume that it was Mordecai who had been taken away from Jerusalem.
