Footnotes
The Greek πάλιν ('again') is grammatically ambiguous: it can introduce a new citation formula ('and again He says') or it can modify the main verb εἰσαγάγῃ ('when He again brings'), pointing to a second or eschatological entry of the Firstborn. The F.O.G takes the second reading — πάλιν with the action — which may gesture toward the parousia or heavenly enthronement; the F.O.G Message takes the first reading as a citation marker, which is the common NT formula for introducing a second scripture. The title πρωτότοκος (Firstborn) carries enormous covenantal freight in Jewish thought, denoting preeminence and comprehensive inheritance rights over all creation (cf. Ps 89:27; Col 1:15). The quotation itself comes from Deuteronomy 32:43 (LXX) or Psalm 97:7.
