Ephesians 2:14
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
Jesus is not just a peacemaker but is Himself our peace, breaking down every dividing wall.
Christ's work on the cross destroyed the barriers separating Jew and Gentile, slave and free, male and female. He made the two groups one, creating peace not through negotiation but through His own body. The hostility that divided humanity—both from God and from each other—was crucified with Christ. Now in Him, we are one new humanity.
