Eph. 3:8      Eph. 3:10

Ephesians 3:9

and enlighten all [people] as to what the plan [concerning the salvation of the Gentiles] entails
– this mystery which throughout the ages [until now] has been hidden in (in) God, who created everything [through Jesus the Anointed One].
[In his letters, Paul often refers to the local context and conveys a new and deeper meaning. Here he uses the Greek word mysterion (secret), a term that was also common in pagan religious contexts in Ephesus. Paul had been given the task of revealing the secret hidden since creation and openly presenting the facts: God's joyful message is not for a select few, but is addressed to all people.]
