Ephesians 3:2. “If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:”
Remember that Paul, a devout Jew before he met Jesus Christ on the Damascus Road, is writing to Gentile believers in Ephesus. Here, he reminds them that God appointed to him, Paul, the task of taking the gospel of Jesus Christ to the Gentile world. He offers to them the incredible grace of God that takes down the middle wall of partition between the Jew and the Gentile and unites them all in the Body of Christ.
The first four verses of this chapter are a legal brief for Paul’s apostleship.
