Ephesians 1:3
Blessed [be] the God. The word "eulogetos" rendered "blessed" is
one from which our word "eulogize" is derived. It means, therefore,
primarily, "to praise". "Praised be the God", etc., gives the idea.
Who hath blessed us. The "blessed" is here from the same root. The
word means, as above, "to praise", or to "speak" good things of one;
then to "speak" good things to, or bestow blessings, as a secondary
meaning. This is the meaning here.
With all spiritual blessings. All came from God, and he has withheld
none from those in Christ.
In heavenly [places]. In the kingdom of heaven.
