This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

NASB (UPDATED) TEXT: Eph_6:23-24

23Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 24Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love.

Eph_6:23-24 These same themes opened the letter! Paul usually penned the closing thoughts himself to authenticate his letters.

Eph_6:24

NASB     "with a love incorruptible"

NKJV     "in sincerity"

NRSV     "an undying love"

TEV      "with undying love"

NJB      "eternal life"

This term usually means "incorruptible" (cf. 1Co_9:25; 1Co_15:52; 1Ti_1:17). It had the connotation of something unchanging and eternal. This was an encouragement in light of the confusion and conflict caused by the false teachers and the personal spiritual battle.
