Ephesians 1:7

_ _ In whom — “the Beloved” (Ephesians 1:6; Romans 3:24).

_ _ we have — as a present possession.

_ _ redemption — Greek, “our (literally, ‘the’) redemption”; THE redemption which is the grand subject of all revelation, and especially of the New Testament (Romans 3:24), namely, from the power, guilt, and penal consequences of sin (Matthew 1:21). If a man were unable to redeem himself from being a bond-servant, his kinsman might redeem him (Leviticus 25:48). Hence, antitypically the Son of God became the Son of man, that as our kinsman He might redeem us (Matthew 20:28). Another “redemption” follows, namely, that “of the purchased possession” hereafter (Ephesians 1:14).

_ _ through his blood — (Ephesians 2:13); as the instrument; the propitiation, that is, the consideration (devised by His own love) for which He, who was justly angry (Isaiah 12:1), becomes propitious to us; the expiation, the price paid to divine justice for our sin (Acts 20:28; Romans 3:25; 1 Corinthians 6:20; Colossians 1:20; 1 Peter 1:18, 1 Peter 1:19).

_ _ the forgiveness of sins — Greek, “the remission of our transgressions”: not merely “pretermission,” as the Greek (Romans 3:25) ought to be translated. This “remission,” being the explanation of “redemption,” includes not only deliverance from sin’s penalty, but from its pollution and enslaving power, negatively; and the reconciliation of an offended God, and a satisfaction unto a just God, positively.

_ _ riches of his grace — (Ephesians 2:7); “the exceeding riches of His grace.” Compare Ephesians 1:18; Ephesians 3:16, “according to the riches of His glory”: so that “grace” is His “glory.”

See commentary on Ephesians 1:3-14.

Ephesians 1:7

By whom we — Who believe. Have — From the moment we believe. Redemption — From the guilt and power of sin. Through his blood — Through what he hath done and suffered for us. According to the riches of his grace — According to the abundant overflowings of his free mercy and favour.
