Col 1:28. Ἡμεῖς, we) Col 1:1 [I and Timothy].-πάντα ἄνθρωπον, every man) This expression, so often used, has the greatest δεινότης (vehemence) and force, and contains the reason why he writes even to them who are unknown to him, ch. Col 2:1. The distribution of the all [“every man-every man-every man”] may be compared with ch. Col 3:11.-καὶ διδάσκοντες) and teaching. νουθετοῦνται (they are admonished) is said of those who have been already taught, as the Colossians; διδάσκονται (are taught) is said of the ignorant and uninstructed.-τέλειον) See Eph 4:13 : perfect, without the elements of the world.
