Calvin's on Ephesians 1:12
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
12. That we should be to the praise of his glory. Here again he mentions the final cause of salvation; for we must eventually become illustrations of the glory of God, if we are nothing but vessels of his mercy. The word glory, by way of eminence, ( κατ ᾿ ἐξοχὴν ) denotes, in a peculiar manner, that which shines in the goodness of God; for there is nothing that is more peculiarly his own, or in which he desires more to be glorified, than goodness. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-13" class="com-number"
