Bible Note: Hi Kalos, May I speak of a marginal reading in the NASB study bible? For "He purchased" it is noted that some ancient mss. read "the Lord purchased". Also, for verse 32, a marginal reading is [one ancient mss. reads "the Lord". In other words, we can see that mss were noting that this Lord is God. This God/Man purchased the church with His blood. And now I commend you to God. He Himself who is God said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." From the heart, Ray |
