41By referring to thisG3739, when you readG314 you canG1410 understandG3539 2my insightG4907 3into the 4mysteryG3466 of ChristG5547,
5whichG3739 in otherG2087 generationsG1074 was not madeG1107 knownG1107 to the sonsG5207 of menG444, as it has nowG3568 been revealedG601 to His holyG40 5apostlesG652 and prophetsG4396 6in the SpiritG4151;
6to be specific, that the GentilesG1484 are 7fellowG4789 heirsG4789 and 8fellowG4954 membersG4954 of the bodyG4954, and 9fellowG4830 partakersG4830 of the promiseG1860 in 10ChristG5547 JesusG2424 throughG1223 the gospelG2098,
711of whichG3739 I was madeG1096 a 12ministerG1249, accordingG2596 to the giftG1431 of 13God’sG2316 graceG5485 which was givenG1325 to me 14accordingG2596 to the workingG1753 of His powerG1411.
8To me, 15the veryG1646 leastG1646 of allG3956 16saintsG40, thisG3778 graceG5485 was givenG1325, to 17preachG2097 to the GentilesG1484 the unfathomableG421 18richesG4149 of ChristG5547,
