Footnotes
Verses 3–5 form a single complex Greek sentence, with παραδοῦναι ("to hand over," v. 5) as the governing infinitive delivering the actual verdict. Verses 3–4 establish Paul's apostolic authority and the assembly's gathered power before the ruling is announced. Both versions signal this incompleteness with connecting punctuation — a dash or colon — indicating the verdict arrives in verse 5.
