Verse 3
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Ver. 3. Blessed be God ] Gratiae cessat decursus, ubi gratiarum recursus. A thankful man shall abound with blessings.
With all spiritual blessings ] εν παση ευλογια πνευματικη , wisdom, prudence, &c.,Ephesians 1:8; Ephesians 1:8 , a Benjamin’s portion, a goodly heritage; called here spiritual blessing in the singular. All, and yet but one blessing; to note that spiritual blessings are so knit together, that they all make up but one blessing; and where God gives one, he gives all.
