Notes on this text (3)
- Church Slavonic in its traditional (Synodal) spelling, with accents, breathings and titlo abbreviations, shown in the Ponomar font (SIL Open Font License).
- Exodus 36–39 follow the Septuagint's order; the digital source has no verse divisions there, so Exodus 36:8–end and chapters 37, 38 and 39 each appear as one block.
- Not shown: the lectionary pericope numbers (зача́ло) and the marginal glosses of the digital source. The Prayer of Manasseh stands at the end of 2 Chronicles (36:24), as in the Slavonic Bible; the prologue of Sirach and the opening verse of Lamentations are joined to verse 1.

1 Па́ѵелъ, посла́нникъ і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́въ во́лею бж҃їею, ст҃ы̑мъ сꙋ́щымъ во є҆фе́сѣ и҆ вѣ́рнымъ ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ:
1 Παῦλος, ἀπόστολος Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ διὰ θελήματος Θεοῦ, τοῖς ἁγίοις τοῖς οὖσιν ἐν Ἐφέσῳ καὶ πιστοῖς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ·
2 блгⷣть ва́мъ и҆ ми́ръ ѿ бг҃а ѻ҆ц҃а̀ на́шегѡ и҆ гдⷭ҇а і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀.
2 χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ Θεοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν καὶ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
3 Блгⷭ҇ве́нъ бг҃ъ и҆ ѻ҆ц҃ъ гдⷭ҇а на́шегѡ і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀, блгⷭ҇ви́вый на́съ всѧ́цѣмъ блгⷭ҇ве́нїемъ дꙋхо́внымъ въ нбⷭ҇ныхъ ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀,
3 Εὐλογητὸς ὁ Θεὸς καὶ πατὴρ τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ὁ εὐλογήσας ἡμᾶς ἐν πάσῃ εὐλογίᾳ πνευματικῇ ἐν τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις ἐν Χριστῷ,

4 καθὼς [καὶ] ἐξελέξατο ἡμᾶς ἐν αὐτῷ πρὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἁγίους καὶ ἀμώμους κατενώπιον αὐτοῦ, ἐν ἀγάπῃ
5 пре́жде наре́къ на́съ во ᲂу҆сыновле́нїе і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́мъ въ него̀, по бл҃говоле́нїю хотѣ́нїѧ своегѡ̀,
5 προορίσας ἡμᾶς εἰς υἱοθεσίαν διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ εἰς αὐτόν, κατὰ τὴν εὐδοκίαν τοῦ θελήματος αὐτοῦ,

7 ἐν ᾧ ἔχομεν τὴν ἀπολύτρωσιν διὰ τοῦ αἵματος αὐτοῦ, τὴν ἄφεσιν τῶν παραπτωμάτων, κατὰ τὸν πλοῦτον τῆς χάριτος αὐτοῦ,
8 ю҆́же преꙋмно́жилъ є҆́сть въ на́съ во всѧ́цѣй премꙋ́дрости и҆ ра́зꙋмѣ,
8 ἧς ἐπερίσσευσεν εἰς ἡμᾶς ἐν πάσῃ σοφίᾳ καὶ φρονήσει,
9 сказа́въ на́мъ та́йнꙋ во́ли своеѧ̀ по бл҃говоле́нїю своемꙋ̀, є҆́же пре́жде положѝ въ не́мъ,
9 γνωρίσας ἡμῖν τὸ μυστήριον τοῦ θελήματος αὐτοῦ κατὰ τὴν εὐδοκίαν αὐτοῦ, ἣν προέθετο ἐν αὐτῷ
10 въ смотре́нїе и҆сполне́нїѧ време́нъ, возглави́ти всѧ́чєскаѧ ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀, ꙗ҆̀же на нб҃сѣ́хъ и҆ ꙗ҆̀же на землѝ въ не́мъ:
10 εἰς οἰκονομίαν τοῦ πληρώματος τῶν καιρῶν, ἀνακεφαλαιώσασθαι τὰ πάντα ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ, τὰ ἐπὶ τοῖς οὐρανοῖς καὶ τὰ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἐν αὐτῷ,
11 въ не́мже и҆ наслѣ̑дницы сотвори́хомсѧ, пре́жде нарече́ни бы́вше по прозрѣ́нїю бж҃їю всѧ̑ дѣ́йствꙋющагѡ по совѣ́тꙋ во́ли своеѧ̀,
11 ἐν ᾧ καὶ ἐκληρώθημεν προορισθέντες κατὰ πρόθεσιν τοῦ τὰ πάντα ἐνεργοῦντος κατὰ τὴν βουλὴν τοῦ θελήματος αὐτοῦ,
12 ꙗ҆́кѡ бы́ти на́мъ въ похвале́нїе сла́вы є҆гѡ̀, пре́жде ᲂу҆пова́вшымъ во хрⷭ҇та̀:
12 εἰς τὸ εἶναι ἡμᾶς εἰς ἔπαινον δόξης αὐτοῦ, τοὺς προηλπικότας ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ·
13 въ не́мже и҆ вы̀, слы́шавше сло́во и҆́стины, бл҃говѣствова́нїе спⷭ҇нїѧ на́шегѡ, въ не́мже и҆ вѣ́ровавше зна́менастесѧ дх҃омъ ѡ҆бѣтова́нїѧ ст҃ы́мъ,
13 ἐν ᾧ καὶ ὑμεῖς ἀκούσαντες τὸν λόγον τῆς ἀληθείας, τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τῆς σωτηρίας ὑμῶν, ἐν ᾧ καὶ πιστεύσαντες ἐσφραγίσθητε τῷ Πνεύματι τῆς ἐπαγγελίας τῷ Ἁγίῳ,
14 и҆́же є҆́сть ѡ҆брꙋче́нїе наслѣ́дїѧ на́шегѡ, во и҆збавле́нїе снабдѣ́нїѧ, въ похвалꙋ̀ сла́вы є҆гѡ̀.
14 ὅς ἐστιν ἀρραβὼν τῆς κληρονομίας ἡμῶν, εἰς ἀπολύτρωσιν τῆς περιποιήσεως, εἰς ἔπαινον τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ.
15 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди и҆ а҆́зъ слы́шавъ ва́шꙋ вѣ́рꙋ ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ и҆ любо́вь, ꙗ҆́же ко всѣ̑мъ ст҃ы̑мъ,
15 Διὰ τοῦτο κἀγώ, ἀκούσας τὴν καθ᾽ ὑμᾶς πίστιν ἐν τῷ Κυρίῳ Ἰησοῦ καὶ τὴν ἀγάπην τὴν εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἁγίους,
16 не престаю̀ благодарѧ̀ ѡ҆ ва́съ, помина́нїе ѡ҆ ва́съ творѧ̀ въ моли́твахъ мои́хъ,
16 οὐ παύομαι εὐχαριστῶν ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν μνείαν ὑμῶν ποιούμενος ἐπὶ τῶν προσευχῶν μου,
17 да бг҃ъ гдⷭ҇а на́шегѡ і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀, ѻ҆ц҃ъ сла́вы, да́стъ ва́мъ дх҃а премꙋ́дрости и҆ ѿкрове́нїѧ, въ позна́нїе є҆гѡ̀,
17 ἵνα ὁ Θεὸς τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ὁ πατὴρ τῆς δόξης, δῴη ὑμῖν πνεῦμα σοφίας καὶ ἀποκαλύψεως ἐν ἐπιγνώσει αὐτοῦ,
18 просвѣщє́нна ѻ҆чеса̀ се́рдца ва́шегѡ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆вѣ́дѣти ва́мъ, ко́е є҆́сть ᲂу҆пова́нїе зва́нїѧ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ко́е бога́тство сла́вы достоѧ́нїѧ є҆гѡ̀ во ст҃ы́хъ,
18 πεφωτισμένους τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν, εἰς τὸ εἰδέναι ὑμᾶς τίς ἐστιν ἡ ἐλπὶς τῆς κλήσεως αὐτοῦ, καὶ τίς ὁ πλοῦτος τῆς δόξης τῆς κληρονομίας αὐτοῦ ἐν τοῖς ἁγίοις,
19 и҆ ко́е преспѣ́ющее вели́чество си́лы є҆гѡ̀ въ на́съ вѣ́рꙋющихъ по дѣ́йствꙋ держа́вы крѣ́пости є҆гѡ̀,
19 καὶ τί τὸ ὑπερβάλλον μέγεθος τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ εἰς ἡμᾶς τοὺς πιστεύοντας κατὰ τὴν ἐνέργειαν τοῦ κράτους τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ,
20 ю҆́же содѣ́ѧ ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀, воскреси́въ є҆го̀ ѿ ме́ртвыхъ и҆ посади́въ ѡ҆деснꙋ́ю себє̀ на нбⷭ҇ныхъ,
20 ἣν ἐνήργησεν ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ ἐγείρας αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν, καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἐν δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ ἐν τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις
21 превы́ше всѧ́кагѡ нача́льства и҆ вла́сти и҆ си́лы и҆ госпо́дства, и҆ всѧ́кагѡ и҆́мене и҆менꙋ́емагѡ не то́чїю въ вѣ́цѣ се́мъ, но и҆ во грѧдꙋ́щемъ:
21 ὑπεράνω πάσης ἀρχῆς καὶ ἐξουσίας καὶ δυνάμεως καὶ κυριότητος καὶ παντὸς ὀνόματος ὀνομαζομένου οὐ μόνον ἐν τῷ αἰῶνι τούτῳ, ἀλλὰ καὶ ἐν τῷ μέλλοντι·
22 и҆ всѧ̑ покорѝ под̾ но́зѣ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ того̀ дадѐ главꙋ̀ вы́ше всѣ́хъ цр҃кви,
22 καὶ πάντα ὑπέταξεν ὑπὸ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ, καὶ αὐτὸν ἔδωκε κεφαλὴν ὑπὲρ πάντα τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ,
23 ꙗ҆́же є҆́сть тѣ́ло є҆гѡ̀, и҆сполне́нїе и҆сполнѧ́ющагѡ всѧ́чєскаѧ во всѣ́хъ.
23 ἥτις ἐστὶ τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ, τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ τὰ πάντα ἐν πᾶσι πληρουμένου.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… that Paul said, "And He Himself is all things;" and again, "All things are to Him, and of Him are all things;" and further, "In Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead;" and yet again, "All things are gathered together by God in Christ." Thus do they interpret these and any like passages to be found in Scripture.
And Thou, O Lord, hadst already magnified Thy Holy One, raising Him from the dead, and setting Him at Thy right hand, whence from on high He should send His promise, the Paraclete, "the Spirit of Truth." And He had already sent Him, but I knew it not; He had sent Him, because He was now magnified, rising again from …

And charging the Ephesians, he thus speaks, According to the working of His mighty power, which He wrought in Christ when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand; and the rest.

And an indication of this is found in the fact that wherever the Natures are distinguished in our thoughts from one another, the Names are also distinguished; as you hear in Paul's words, "The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Glory." The God of Christ, but the Father of glory.

… body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered increaseth with the increase of God." And that Christ is the head of the Church we have learned in another passage, when the apostle says "gave him to be the head over all things to the Church," and "of his fulness have all we received." And the Lord Himself says "He shall …
