Colossians 1:8 meaning and explanation
and who also informed us of your love in the Spirit.
Colossians 1:8, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Paul writes from prison to a church he has never visited, and in verse 8 he credits Epaphras, the Colossians' own teacher, with bringing news of their love. The phrase "in the Spirit" locates that love in the Holy Spirit's work rather than in mere human affection, so the report Paul received was evidence of God's grace among them.
