People's Bible Notes for Ephesians 3:5


Eph 3:5 Which. The mystery. In other ages was not made known unto the sons of men. It was in past ages hidden from men, but now revealed by the Spirit to apostles and prophets. Not the old Hebrew prophets, but the prophets in the church. Some of the Hebrew prophets might have had a glimpse of Gentile salvation, but they did not understand their own language as well as we do in the light of the gospel.
