" 19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. " (2Cor. 5:19, NASB)
Hi brothers. I was just wondering if the word "en" in 2Cor. 5:19 is followed by the dative or genitive and whether or not the "en Christos" in "God was in Christ" is syntactically parallel to "en Christos" in Ephesians 4:32 and Romans 6:11?
Lastly, is "en" in Colossians 1:16 ("For by/in [en] Him all things were created") and Hebrews 1:2 "in/by [in] His Son" syntactically parallel too? In other words, do all four examples use the word "en" to mean by means of, or instrumentality?
I want to be as accurate as possible in my Youtube videos. God bless!
