The
Epistle to the Ephesians
The Epistle to the Ephesians is a fascinating epistle
with its long, complex sentences and interlocking theological
themes. Because of its broad sweep of the divine purposes, its
grand themes and emphasis on unity, truth, and love, this epistle
will prove to be both an encouragement and a searching challenge for
years. Throughout the centuries,
only the Psalms, the Gospel of John, and Romans have been as
influential and significant as Ephesians in shaping the life and
thought of Christians, although significantly shorter than these
others.This epistle exhibits long and
complex sentence constructions such as is found in no other Pauline
epistle (cf. 1:3-14; 15-23; 2:1-7, 11-13, 14-18, 19-22; 3:1-19;
4:1-6, 11-16, 17-19, 20-24; 6:14-20). Ephesians has a strong
Semitic flavor because of the accumulation of synonyms and genitival
constructions. The language and style of Ephesians demonstrate
striking similarities to that of the Qumran literature and that such
Semitic syntactic appearances occur four times as frequently in this
epistle as in all other Paul's epistles. Ephesians has
forty-one hapax legomena. Furthermore, forty-four of
the words in Ephesians are found nowhere else in the Pauline corpus,
and nineteen are common only to Ephesians and Colossians.
In addition to the
above traditional single-paged format, overviews for entire paragraphs and
chapters
are available for The Epistle to the Ephesians by means of expanded page
dimensions. Although
these overviews are not designed to be printed, they will be
helpful to orientate the user to the overall syntactical structure of a
sentence/paragraph. In conjunction with a classroom computer and a LCD
projector, these overviews will add a visual learning dimension that has never
been possible before in the history of NTGreek diagramming.
The Epistle to the Ephesians is
bookmarked by chapter
and verse for easier
reference. And if you
should decide later to upgrade to the
NTGreek In Diagram
Membership, you will not lose any previously paid amount.
Because of Paul's long, complex
sentences in The Epistle to the Ephesians, it is
recommended that these diagrams be purchased after at least two
semesters of Greek.
