Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation:
All Commentaries on Colossians 1:15 Go To Colossians 1
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
The first born of every creature. St. Chrysostom takes notice against the Arians, that the apostle calls Christ the first-begotten, or first-born, not the first created, because he was not created at all. And the sense is, that he was before all creatures, proceeding from all eternity from the Father; though some expound the words of Christ as man, and that he was greater in dignity. See Romans viii. 29. (Witham)
