The 'But God made us alive' in 2:4 is the same 'moment' as 'But now in Christ Jesus you... have been brought near', with different emphases. In 2:1-10 God changes our relationship with Him from dead to alive and seated with Christ. In 2:11 - 22 God changes relationship of Jews and Gentiles from one of hostility to peace, unity and family oneness. Both are by God's grace and therefore both magnify God's grace (bringing forth worship) and kill man's pride. In the first passage God kills our 'personal' pride with regard to God in salvation so that we can't boast. In the second case God kills the ethnic pride which divides. Both are by grace, and the blood of Christ, all so that God might display his grace to those he made alive and that He might display, through this new man - the church - His manifold, multidimensional, multicolored wisdom to the authorities in heavenly places. (3:10) (I made a mistake in my numbering and didn't include verse 22. Spoo. That's oops backwards.)

NT

tisch

esv

Διὸ μνημονεύετε ὅτι ποτὲ ὑμεῖς τὰ ἔθνη ἐν σαρκί,

Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh,

οἱ λεγόμενοι ἀκροβυστία ὑπὸ τῆς λεγομένης περιτομῆς

called "the uncircumcision" by what is called the circumcision,

ἐν σαρκὶ χειροποιήτου,

which is made in the flesh by hands--

ideaexplanation

ὅτι ἦτε τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ χωρὶς Χριστοῦ

remember that you were at that time separated from Christ,

ἀπηλλοτριωμένοι τῆς πολιτείας τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ

alienated from the commonwealth of Israel

καὶ ξένοι τῶν διαθηκῶν τῆς ἐπαγγελίας,

and strangers to the covenants of promise,

ἐλπίδα μὴ ἔχοντες καὶ ἄθεοι ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ·

having no hope and without God in the world.

series

νυνὶ δὲ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ ὑμεῖς οἵ ποτε ὄντες μακρὰν

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off

ἐγενήθητε ἐγγὺς

have been brought near

ἐν τῷ αἵματι τοῦ Χριστοῦ.

by the blood of Christ.

actionmanner

situationresponse

αὐτὸς γάρ ἐστιν ἡ εἰρήνη ἡμῶν,

For he himself is our peace,

ὁ ποιήσας τὰ ἀμφότερα ἓν

who has made us both one

καὶ τὸ μεσότοιχον τοῦ φραγμοῦ λύσας,

and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility

τὴν ἔχθραν, ἐν τῇ σαρκὶ αὐτοῦ τὸν νόμον τῶν ἐντολῶν ἐν δόγμασιν καταργήσας,

by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances,

ἵνα τοὺς δύο κτίσῃ ἐν αὐτῷ εἰς ἕνα καινὸν ἄνθρωπον ποιῶν εἰρήνην,

that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace,

καὶ ἀποκαταλλάξῃ τοὺς ἀμφοτέρους ἐν ἑνὶ σώματι τῷ θεῷ διὰ τοῦ σταυροῦ,

and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross,

ἀποκτείνας τὴν ἔχθραν ἐν αὐτῷ.

thereby killing the hostility.

actionpurpose

καὶ ἐλθὼν εὐηγγελίσατο εἰρήνην ὑμῖν τοῖς μακρὰν καὶ εἰρήνην τοῖς ἐγγύς,

And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near.

ὅτι δι’ αὐτοῦ ἔχομεν τὴν προσαγωγὴν οἱ ἀμφότεροι ἐν ἑνὶ πνεύματι πρὸς τὸν πατέρα.

For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.

ground

ἄρα οὖν οὐκέτι ἐστὲ ξένοι καὶ πάροικοι,

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens,

ἀλλὰ ἐστὲ συνπολῖται τῶν ἁγίων

but you are fellow citizens with the saints

καὶ οἰκεῖοι τοῦ θεοῦ,

and members of the household of God,

ἐποικοδομηθέντες ἐπὶ τῷ θεμελίῳ τῶν ἀποστόλων καὶ προφητῶν,

built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets,

ὄντος ἀκρογωνιαίου αὐτοῦ Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ,

Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,

ἐν ᾧ πᾶσα οἰκοδομὴ συναρμολογουμένη αὔξει εἰς ναὸν ἅγιον ἐν κυρίῳ,

in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.
