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.

Ephesians 1:3

Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: (KJV)

Our verse today would be a good time to compare my two references as to how they present this verse. Another way to find tools like this is to type in the reference verse and add “text analysis” in your favorite search engine.

  • Blessed G2128, eulogetos. Worthy of the blessing.
  • Who hath    G3588, ho. You will see this many times in the New Testament, like 19867 times.
  • Blessed G2127, eulogeo. Giving someone praise or conferring a blessing on someone.
  • All G3956, pas. “Everything” and many other English words that carry the idea of “all”. You will see this word often in the New Testament as it appears 1243 times.
  • Spiritual G 4152, pneumatike. “Pneuma” is spirit, breath, or wind depending on the text. In your morning moments exchange these words and your thoughts in a verse like Acts 2:2.
  • Blessings G2129, eulogia. There are other variations, but it deals with speaking and the spoken word. When you look at the three words that deal with bless, the common thing is “eulog”. A common word we use is eulogy. No, being a translator is not easy.
  • Heavenly places G2032, epouranious. Heaven also comes from this word.
