People's Commentary (NT)
Ephesians 2:12
That at that time ye were without Christ. The past state of the
Gentile Christians is described when they had no knowledge of Christ.
Being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel. Not being of the
race of Abraham, who were in covenant relation with God.
Strangers from the covenants of promise. The various covenants
made with the patriarchs which contained the promise of Christ, of
which they were ignorant, and hence not partakers of the hope.
Having no hope. No hope in the promise or in Christ.
And without God in the world. Walking without the knowledge of
the true God.
