Xairein,
The initial KAQWS in Eph. 1:4 has puzzled me for some time.
BDAG suggests it indicates cause meaning God blessed us with all
spiritual blessings in Christ because He chose us in him
It interests me that no English translation I have (in BibleWorks 6),
Luther, or the Vulgate takes it this way.
Im currently inclined to take it along the lines of an explanatory
markersomething like that is, meaning God blessed us with all spiritual
blessings in Christ, that is, he elected us predestined us and so on to
v. 14.
Is this possible? Can KAQWS function this way?
Thanks for your feedback.
