EPHESIANS INDEX

Serious and erudite, not to mention learned, readers please note that I have omitted many Greek words from the text and tried to make the sense complete without, because my scanner cannot read Greek letters, and neither can I. So when you read "the word means..." you can supply the Greek word if you wish from a lexicon or parallel translation. For myself, I'm happy to accept that the Greek word means whatever he says! I can always check if I wish to challenge him. (Webmaster)
