Ephesians 5:5
_ _ this ye know — The oldest manuscripts read, “Of this ye are sure knowing”; or as Alford, “This ye know being aware.”
_ _ covetous ... idolater — (Colossians 3:5). The best reading may be translated, That is to say, literally, which is (in other words) an idolater. Paul himself had forsaken all for Christ (2 Corinthians 6:10; 2 Corinthians 11:27). Covetousness is worship of the creature instead of the Creator, the highest treason against the King of kings (1 Samuel 15:3; Matthew 6:24; Philippians 3:19; 1 John 2:15).
_ _ hath — The present implies the fixedness of the exclusion, grounded on the eternal verities of that kingdom [Alford].
_ _ of Christ and of God — rather, as one Greek article is applied to both, “of Christ and God,” implying their perfect oneness, which is consistent only with the doctrine that Christ is God (compare 2 Thessalonians 1:12; 1 Timothy 5:21; 1 Timothy 6:13). |
Ephesians 5:5
(2) For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an (b) idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
(2) Because these sins are such that the most part of men do not consider them to be sins, he awakes the godly to the end that they should so much the more take heed to guard themselves from these sins as from most harmful plagues.
(b) A bondslave to idolatry, for the covetous man thinks that his life consists in his goods. |
