Ephesians 2:16-18

Contemporary English Version

^16 (A) On the cross Christ did away with our hatred for each other. He also made peace^[a] between us and God by uniting Jews and Gentiles in one body. ^17 (B) Christ came and preached peace to you Gentiles, who were far from God, and peace to us Jews, who were near God. ¹⁸ And because of Christ, all of us can come to the Father by the same Spirit.
