1:1 at (a-19) Lit. 'in,' as [Acts 13:1](../../../kjv/acts/13/1) ; [Revelation 2:1](../../../kjv/revelation/2/1) . Ephesus. (b-20) It may be interesting to mention that though 'at Ephesus' is found in almost all copies, many authorities would leave it out. Some, without sufficient ground, have considered it as a kind of circular. Compare [Colossians 4:16](../../../kjv/colossians/4/16) .

6:3 earth. (c-16) See [Exodus 20:12](../../../kjv/exodus/20/12) ; [Deuteronomy 5:16](../../../kjv/deuteronomy/5/16) .

6:11 on (d-2) Aorist, meaning 'have it put on.' panoply (e-4) i.e. 'the complete armour.' The word is used only here and in [Luke 11:22](../../../kjv/luke/11/22) .

6:12 [power] (f-24) Or 'powers.'

6:13 take (g-4) 'Take,' 'taken,' vers, 13 and 16, are aorists. The sense is 'taking up,' as arms or clothes to put on. taking a person with you, [2 Timothy 4:11](../../../kjv/2-timothy/4/11) . things, (h-26) Or 'having overcome all things.' It is to 'carry through and put in execution all that is purposed and called for, in spite of opposition.'

6:15 preparation (i-7) Or 'readiness,' 'willingness,' 'preparedness.'

6:16 inflamed (k-20) Or 'burning.' such darts with burning stuff at the end were in use.

6:17 (l-1) Lit. 'receive' (aorist imperative). This is not as active or energetic a word as 'take,' vers. 13,16. Perhaps there is instruction in this.

6:21 on, (a-16) *Prasso* . the word seems to express both doing and state. see Note i, [Romans 1:32](../../../kjv/romans/1/32) . minister (b-23) Or 'servant' ( *diakonos* ), one that ministered to Paul as to the Lord, as [2 Corinthians 6:4](../../../kjv/2-corinthians/6/4) .
