Open the Eyes of My Understanding

Paul wrote the Epistle to the Ephesians around A.D. 60–62 during his first Roman imprisonment.

• As one of the “Prison Epistles,” most believe it was written while he was under house arrest in Rome.
• Often cited alongside Colossians and Philemon as part of this period.

Paul wants these saints to realize that they are the recipients of the many greatest blessings in Christ.

Verse 18… He wants the “eyes of their understanding to be enlightened”

• When Paul said, “that you may know” he is saying I want you to have a tangible, touchable, experiential knowledge.
