Ephesians 1:21

Ephesians 1:21

Comparing both references on this verse is a good idea as the translators use different words for the text.

Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: (KJV)

  • Infinitely superior or above, hyperano G5231. This word is used here and in 4:10 and Hebrews 9:5.
  • Every, pas G3956. This “well-used” word is important here and in the next several verses.
  • Principality, arches G746. Reference 3:10 and 6:12.
  • Authority, exousia G1849. See 2:2, 3:10, and 6:12.
  • Power, dynamis G1411. See 1:19, 3:7, 16, and 20.
  • Dominion, kyriotes G2963. It is used only four times. Here it may be speaking of angelic powers.
  • Name, onoma G3686. This and G3687 is a good study. Matthew 6:9 is a good verse to start at.
  • Only, monon G3440.
  • Age, aion G165.
  • To come, mello G3195.
