Colossians 3:7 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

Walked sometime - `once.'

When ye lived in them - as in your very element (before ye became once for all dead with Christ to them): no wonder, then, that ye "walked" in them. Contrast 'living in the Spirit,' and its consequence, 'walking in the Spirit' (Galatians 5:25). The living comes first; the walking follows.

Colossians 3:7

7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
