Paul’s letter to the Ephesians is full of instruction and edification; it would be difficult to find a greater concentration of ideas in any writing than is found in the first chapter. The letter to the Romans treats of God’s righteousness revealed in Christ in the Gospel. The letter to the Ephesians goes forward to discourse of the things which are the privileged possession of those who are partakers of that “wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption” which of God is in Christ Jesus. It is hoped that this book will help to attain a fuller knowledge of “the mystery of God’s will” which was revealed through the apostle to us Gentiles. The letter speaks of the things which are the privileged possession of those who are partakers of that "wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption" which of God is in Christ Jesus.
