2:17. And coming, he preached peace to you that were afar off: and peace
to them that were nigh.
2:18. For by him we have access both in one Spirit to the Father.
2:19. Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners: but you
are fellow citizens with the saints and the domestics of God,
2:20. Built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus
Christ himself being the chief corner stone:
2:21. In whom all the building, being framed together, groweth up into
an holy temple in the Lord.
2:22. In whom you also are built together into an habitation of God in
the Spirit.
Ephesians Chapter 3
The mystery hidden from former ages was discovered to the apostle, to be
imparted to the Gentiles. He prays that they may be strengthened in God.
3:1. For this cause, I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ, for you
Gentiles:
3:2. If yet you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which
is given me towards you:
3:3. How that, according to revelation, the mystery has been made known
to me, as I have written above in a few words:
3:4. As you reading, may understand my knowledge in the mystery of
Christ,
3:5. Which in other generations was not known to the sons of men, as it
is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit:
3:6. That the Gentiles should be fellow heirs and of the same body: and
copartners of his promise in Christ Jesus, by the gospel
3:7. Of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace
of God, which is given to me according to the operation of his power.
3:8. To me, the least of all the saints, is given this grace, to preach
among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ:
3:9. And to enlighten all men, that they may see what is the
dispensation of the mystery which hath been hidden from eternity in God
who created all things:
3:10. That the manifold wisdom of God may be made known to the
principalities and powers in heavenly places through the church,
3:11. According to the eternal purpose which he made in Christ Jesus our
Lord:
3:12. In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith
of him.
3:13. Wherefore I pray you not to faint at my tribulations for you,
which is your glory.
3:14. For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ,
3:15. Of whom all paternity in heaven and earth is named:
All paternity... Or, the whole family. God is the Father, both of angels
and men; whosoever besides is named father, is so named with
subordination to him.
3:16. That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to
be strengthened by his Spirit with might unto the inward man:
3:17. That Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts: that, being rooted
and founded in charity,
3:18. You may be able to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the
breadth and length and height and depth,
