Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things comes the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
All Commentaries on Ephesians 5:6 Go To Ephesians 5
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
The apostle here puts them in mind of the general judgment, when the angel of God will, on account of their crimes of avarice, fornication fall on the children of unbelief; by which are meant the wicked. He had before assured them that the perpetrators of such crimes would be excluded from the kingdom of heaven; and now he moreover informs them, that the severest punishments will be inflicted on such wicked persons. (Estius)
