Who has delivered us from the power of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
All Commentaries on Colossians 1:13 Go To Colossians 1
John Chrysostom
AD 407
The whole is from him, the giving both of these things and of those; for no achievement finds its source in us…. Not then so as to deliver man from darkness only did he show his love toward him. It is a great thing indeed to have been delivered from darkness; but to have been brought into a kingdom too is far greater.
