Ephesians 1:8 meaning and explanation
that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.
Ephesians 1:8, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Paul is writing to believers in Ephesus, and verses 7 and 8 form one long sentence: redemption and forgiveness come through Christ's blood, and this grace was lavished on us. The word "lavished" translates the Greek perisseuo, meaning to overflow or abound, so grace is not measured out sparingly but poured out beyond measure.
