Ephesians Study Notes—Chapter 4

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
- 4:4
  
  One: In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul stresses the importance of unity. At Eph 4:4-6, he provides a list of factors that unite the congregation of anointed Christians.
  
  One body: That is, the Christian congregation, which is compared to a human body. Jesus Christ is the “head” of this spiritual body.—Eph 1:22, 23.
  
  one spirit: That is, God’s holy spirit.—1Co 12:13; 2Co 5:5.
  
  one hope: In this context, “one hope” refers specifically to the heavenly hope of anointed Christians. (Heb 3:1) Additionally, when the anointed serve as heavenly kings and priests, all mankind who desire to serve God and who exercise faith will be “set free from enslavement to corruption” and will enjoy “the glorious freedom of the children of God.”—Ro 8:20, 21, 24.
