This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

For by hope were we saved (tēi gar elpidi esōthēmen). First aorist passive indicative of sōzō. The case of elpidi is not certain, the form being the same for locative, instrumental and dative. Curiously enough either makes good sense in this context: “We were saved in hope, by hope, for hope” (of the redemption of the body).
