Ephesians 4:8-10

8Therefore it says,

a“When he ascended on high bhe led a host of captives,
and he gave gifts to men.”
The Greek word anthropoi can refer to both men and women

9( dIn saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into ethe lower regions, the earth?
Or  the lower parts of the earth?
10He who descended is the one who also gascended hfar above all the heavens, that he might ifill all things.)

16Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness:

jHe
Greek Who; some manuscripts God; others Which

Or justified
by the Spirit,
Or  vindicated in spirit

nseen by angels,
oproclaimed among the nations,
pbelieved on in the world,
qtaken up in glory.
