Ephesians 2:14-16
“For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition, having abolished in his flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace, and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, having killed the hostility thereby.”
The Apostle Paul writes to Christians in Ephesus, a city in Asia Minor, likely in the mid-first century CE. He reminds them that through Christ, the historic division between Jewish and non-Jewish people (Gentiles) has been overcome, creating a new, united community.
In what ways might we be unknowingly contributing to the 'walls' that divide people today?
