Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation:
All Commentaries on Colossians 1:15 Go To Colossians 1
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
For according to the form of God he is “the beginning who also speaks to us,” in which beginning God “made the heavens and the earth,” but according to the form of a slave he is “the bridegroom coming out of his chamber.” According to the form of God he is “the firstborn of every creature, and he himself is before all creatures, and in him all things hold together,” and according to the form of a slave he is “the head of the body, the church.” .
