Colossians 1:4 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints, Since we heard of your faith - This is very similar to Ephesians 1:15. And it is certain that the apostle seems to have considered the Church at Ephesus, and that at Colassa to have been nearly in the same state, as the two epistles are very similar in their doctrine and phraseology.
