## Greek text

καὶ ταῦτα τοσούτῳ ἥδιον ὑπεμνήσαμεν, ἐπειδὴ σαφῶς ᾔδειμεν γράφειν ἡμᾶς ἀνδράσιν πιστοῖς καὶ ἐλλογιμωτάτοις καὶ ἐγκεκυφόσιν εἰς τὰ λόγια τῆς παιδείας τοῦ θεοῦ.

## English translation (Claude)

And we have reminded you of these things all the more gladly because we knew clearly that we were writing to men who are faithful and highly esteemed and have looked into the oracles of God's instruction.
