Little words

[FineLinen]

The "small" words in koine express incredible magnitude. One of them is ἐν.

The Lord Jesus is not only King of the Jews, He is the Prince-Leader of every human being, in every dimension of the heavens, earth, and underworld!

That ἐν/ in the Name of Jesus every knee shall bow in worship, not "at" His Name, but in/ἐν His Name.

For those who have experienced the wonder of being in/ ἐν Him, the outcome is obvious. The entire universe ultimately sings in harmonious strains.....

"You are Lord."

This is NOT perfunctory genuflections! NOT!

That in the name of Jesus every knee should bow (ινα εν τω ονοματ Ιησου παν γονυ καμψη). First aorist active subjunctive of καμπτω, old verb, to bend, to bow, in purpose clause with ινα.

Not perfunctory genuflections whenever the name of Jesus is mentioned, but universal acknowledgment of the majesty and power of Jesus Christ who carries his human name and nature to heaven.

This universal homage to Jesus is seen in Romans 8:22; Ephesians 1:20-22 and in particular Revelation 5:13. Under the earth (καταχθονιων). Homeric adjective for departed souls, subterranean, simply the dead. Here only in the N.T.

I also like the fact that in means- a fixed position.
Ergo in Christ is a fixed position .

My brother Ross: The entire fixed position in the Christ is where our
Abba is drawing us. His Plan has always been to bring us Home to Himself and our elder Brother....

That where I am you may be also.
