RT Article T1 The strophic structure of the eulogy of Ephesians 1:3-14 JF Hervormde teologiese studies VO 46 IS 3 SP 390 OP 413 A1 Barkhuizen, J. H. LA English YR 1990 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1946127213 AB Since Eduard Norden’s (1913) statement concerning the awkward length and construction of Ephesians 1:3-14, a flood of studies have been devoted to the analysis of this Greek sentence. In this paper I have firstly given an overview of those studies representative of the structure of the eulogy of Ephesians 1:3-14, and secondly presented a new reconstruction of this passage based on principles of form and content.
