This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Col 1:25. Τὴν οἰκονομίαν τοῦ Θεοῦ, the dispensation of God) Thence Paul (was) a steward [1Co 4:1, one having dispensation] of the grace of God, Eph 3:2.-εἰς ὑμᾶς, to you) Gentiles, Col 1:27.-πληρῶσαι) to fulfil, to bring it fully to all. Paul everywhere aims towards the farthest point; comp. Rom 15:19, πεπληρωκέναι [round about unto Illyricum I have fully preached]. The fulness of Christ and of the times required that.
