In whom (en hōi). Just like Col 1:14 with paraptōmatōn (trespasses) in place of hamartiōn (sins) and with the addition of dia tou haimatos autou (through his blood) as in Col 1:20. Clearly Paul makes the blood of Christ the cost of redemption, the ransom money (lutron, Mat 20:28; Mar 10:45; antilutron, 1Ti 2:6). See note on Col 1:9.
