Ephesians 2:14-16

14For He Himself is 1our peace, 2who made both groups into one and broke down the 3barrier of the dividing wall,

154by 5abolishing 6in His flesh the hostility, which is 7the Law composed of commandments expressed in ordinances, so that in Himself He might 89make the two 10one new person, in this way establishing 11peace;

16and that He might 12reconcile them both in 13one body to God through the cross, 14by it having 15put to death the hostility.
