The Hodder Bible Commentary: Colossians & Philemon (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Here there is no Gentile or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all, and is in all.
Colossians 3:11

In Colossians and Philemon, we see the mind-blowing supremacy of Christ, his stunning sin-cancelling victory and the unprecedented peace and unity it brings. Far from affirming slavery, as some imagine, these paired letters demonstrate the radical equality that flows from recognising Jesus as the one true Lord.

Situating these two letters in their biblical and historical context, Rebecca McLaughlin's commentary explores how Paul's two letters to the church in Colossae shape how we cling to Jesus as our spiritual head, and how we relate to one another, focusing our minds and hearts on his return.
