And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
All Commentaries on Ephesians 6:17 Go To Ephesians 6
John Chrysostom
AD 407
And take the helmet, he continues, of salvation, that is, of your salvation. For he is casing them in armor.
And the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. He either means the Spirit, or else, the spiritual sword: for by this all things are severed, by this all things are cleft asunder, by this we cut off even the serpent's head.
