Nota de Estudo

Study Note

The revelation of 'the mystery... which is Christ in you, the hope of glory' condenses the entire epistle's Christology into a startling formulation: the previously hidden content of God's redemptive plan is the indwelling Christ, available to Gentiles. The 'mystery' (mystērion) in Pauline usage refers not to something permanently unknowable but to something previously concealed and now disclosed — specifically, the inclusion of the Gentiles in the body of Christ (Ephesians 3:3-6). The phrase 'the riches of the glory of this mystery' piles up terms of abundance to emphasize the disproportionate generosity of the revelation. The double significance — 'Christ in you' as both internal transformation and corporate indwelling — makes the verse foundational for both mystical and ecclesiological theology.
