Abstract
According to the book of Ephesians, written by the apostle Paul in the midst of Roman imprisonment, the gospel message unifies the church in the riches and calling of Christ on a cosmic scale. However, far from being removed from the earthly reality in which we live, Paul declares that the gospel of Christ utterly transforms believers in every way, but especially with regard to life with one another. Despite this epistle’s insistence on the victory of God’s light, scholars today wrestle as we see through a glass darkly. Because of this, there is great division in God’s unified church over how the book of Ephesians characterizes the bond of marriage.
