Ephesians 432

Ephesians 4:32 is a verse from the New Testament of the Christian Bible, found in the Epistle to the Ephesians. The verse reads: "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." This passage emphasizes the importance of kindness, compassion, and forgiveness among believers, reflecting the forgiving nature of God through Jesus Christ. In Hebrew, the phrase "Be kind to one another" can be translated as הִתְנַהֲגוּ בְּחֶסֶד זֶה בָּזֶה (Hitnahagu be'chesed zeh bazeh). The Greek original, χρηστεύομαι (chrēsteuomai), conveys the idea of being useful, good, or kind. In Latin, the verse begins with Benigni sitote, and in German, it is Seid gegen einander freundlich. Contextually, this verse is part of a broader exhortation in Ephesians 4-6, where the Apostle Paul encourages the Ephesian Christians to live in a manner worthy of their calling, emphasizing unity, love, and moral conduct. The call to forgiveness is particularly significant, as it mirrors the divine forgiveness extended to believers through Christ's sacrifice.
