For in him dwells all the fullness of the Deity bodily.
All Commentaries on Colossians 2:9 Go To Colossians 2
Hippolytus of Rome
AD 235
En afterwards the world had attained unto its completion, there came down from above, for causes that we shall afterwards declare, in the time of Herod a certain man called Christ, with a threefold nature, and a threefold body, and a threefold power, (and) having in himself all (species of) concretions and potentialities (derivable) from the three divisions of the world; and that this, says (the Peratic), is what is spoken: "It pleased him that in him should dwell all fulness bodily".
That this is what has been declared, "in whom dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily."
