⁸ See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world,^h Lit and notrather than according to Christ. ⁹ For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, ¹⁰ and in Him you have been madeⁱ Lit fullcomplete, and He is the head^j Lit ofover all rule and authority; ¹¹ and in Him you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in the removal of the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ; ¹² having been buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also raised up with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. ¹³ When you were dead^k Or by reason ofin your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions, ¹⁴ having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. ¹⁵ When He had^l Or divested Himself ofdisarmed the rulers and authorities, He made a public display of them, having triumphed over them through^m Or it; i.e. the crossHim.	8 Co1 8:9 Co1 10:12 Gal 5:15 Heb 3:12 Eph 5:6 Col 2:23 Ti1 6:20 Gal 4:3 Col 2:20 9 Co2 5:19 Col 1:19 10 Eph 3:19 Eph 1:21 Co1 15:24 Eph 3:10 Col 2:15 11 Rom 2:29 Eph 2:11 Rom 6:6 Rom 7:24 Gal 5:24 Col 3:5 12 Rom 6:4 Rom 6:5 Eph 2:6 Col 2:13 Col 3:1 Act 2:24 13 Eph 2:1 Eph 2:5 Col 2:12 14 Eph 2:15 Col 2:20 Pe1 2:24 15 Eph 4:8 Joh 12:31 Co1 15:24 Eph 3:10 Col 2:10 Eph 4:8 Co2 2:14
