translationNotes
- God is rich in mercy - "God is abundant in mercy" or "God acts very kind to us"
- because of his great love with which he loved us - "because of his great love for us" or "because he loves us very much"
- while we were dead in trespasses, he brought us to new life - This shows how a sinful person is unable to obey God until he is given new spiritual life just like a dead person is unable to respond physically unless he is raised from the dead. (See: en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_metaphor)
- he brought us to new life together with Christ - God has given us new life in christ.
- by grace you have been saved - "God saved us because of his great kindness toward us."
- and raised us up together and made us sit together in the heavenly places with Christ Jesus. - Just as he already raised christ, he will raise us up too and be with Christ in heaven.
- in the ages to come - "in the future"
