EPHESIANS 1:19,20;2:1
And what is the exceeding greatness of His power. . . . Which he wrought in Christ, WHEN HE RAISED HIM from the dead, AND SET HIM at his own right hand in the heavenly places.... AND YOU hath he quickened, who were dead in trespass and sins.
Open your Bibles to Ephesians 2:1 A king James Version will look something like this.
CHAPTER 2
AND you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins.
When a word is italicized in the King James Version,that means the word is not in the original manuscript; the translators have added it. So the original reads, "And you who were dead in trespasses and sins."
I wanted you to see that the verb that controls Ephesians 2:1 is back in Ephesians 1:20! (Paul didn't write in chapters and verse; men divided Paul's writings later for easy reference.) Our text today makes it clearer for you. Notice the capitalized words:"... WHEN HE [GOD] Raised Him [Christ from the dead.... AND [raised] YOU... Who were dead tress passes and sin. "The same verb that expresses the reviving of Christ's people! So the mighty act of God which raised Christ from the dead also raised His Body!
