Thus, Paul was telling us that mental and spiritual darkness has not only led the people of the world to corruption in the flesh but also separated them from the hope of everlasting life that God holds out.
Seega rääkis Paulus meile, et mõistuse pimedus ja vaimne pimedus pole maailma inimesi mitte ainult füüsilise laostumiseni viinud, vaid on eemaldanud nad ka igavese elu lootusest, mida Jumal pakub.
