The Epistle to the Ephesians: A Verse by Verse Exposition

The Epistle to the Ephesians: A Verse by Verse Exposition

A thorough verse-by-verse exposition of Paulâ€™s letter to the Ephesians. â€œNowhere,â€ says Bruce, is Godâ€™s â€œglorious purpose unfolded so fully and clearly as in the Epistle to the Ephesians. . . . The message of Ephesians is that only through Christ, in the fellowship of his body, can iron curtains, color-bars, class-warfare and all other divisions of this kind be brought to an end. . . . Only Christ can bring together the people on either side of these barricades, by first bringing them to himself, thus making them one with him and therefore one with one another. . . . If the same divisions of class and race and color as we see in the world are tolerated in the Church, her witness is nullified; the salt of the earth has lost its taste and has become good for nothing.â€ Itâ€™s no wonder that Bruce quotes John Mackay as saying, â€œbecause of the nature of the problem with which it deals, Ephesians is the most modern of the New Testament writings.â€
This book is intended for the general Christian reader who is interested in serious Bible study, not for the professional or specialist student. Therefore Bruce deals only lightly with textual, linguistic and other critical questions. His main aim is to bring out the meaning and message of Paulâ€™s Epistle.
