Ephesians 3:14-21

Appreciation of the Mystery

14  For this reason, I bow my knees to the (Eph. 1:3) Father (NU omits of our Lord Jesus Christ) of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 

16 that He would grant you,  [Eph. 1:7; 2:4; Phil. 4:19] according to the riches of His glory, (1 Cor. 16:13; Phil. 4:13; Col. 1:11) to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 

17 (John 14:23; Rom. 8:9; 2 Cor. 13:5; [Eph. 2:22]) that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, (Col. 1:23) being rooted and grounded in love, 

18 (Eph. 1:18) may be able to comprehend with all the saints (Rom. 8:39) what is the width and length and depth and height—

19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled (Eph. 1:23) with all the fullness of God.

20 Now (Rom. 16:25) to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly (1 Cor. 2:9) above all that we ask or think, (Col. 1:29) according to the power that works in us, 

21 (Rom. 11:36) to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

A Threshing Floor

A Threshing Floor In the ancient world, farmers used threshing floors to separate grain from its inedible husk (chaff) by beating it with a flail or walking animals on it—sometimes while towing a threshing sledge. Sledges were fitted with flint teeth to dehusk the grain more quickly. Other workers would turn the grain over so that it would be evenly threshed by the sledge.

Modern Mount Calvary

Modern Mount Calvary ‎Great authorities are marshaled in favor of both claimants—the church within and the mound without the walls. For a long time, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre was the only traditional spot pointed out as the place of burial. But with the growing influence of the Grotto of Jeremiah, the modern Mount Calvary, a picture of which we give, increased in favor. This whole discussion as to the place where Christ was crucified, and as to the tomb in which His body was placed, turns upon the direction which the walls about Jerusalem took at the time of the crucifixion. If the Church of the Holy Sepulchre was outside the wall at that time, as Dean Stanley thinks it might have been, the chances in favor of its being the place of crucifixion and burial are increased. If, however, the site of this church was inside the wall at that time it is sure that the place of burial and crucifixion was not there, for Christ was crucified outside of the walls of Jerusalem.
