Even
if we accept the rendering of the A.V. the argument for the Deity of Christ
from the passage, although weakened, is not negated: the verse still bears testimony
to the equality in glory of Christ with the Father. The Greek conjunction kai
(and) can be and is often translated even, so that the verse may
read: “the great God, even our Savior Christ Jesus.” For a similar usage see 2 Thessalonians 2:16: “Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself,
and (kai) God, even (kai) our Father. To translate both kai’s as
and would make three persons: Christ, God, and the Father.
