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
Jerome
AD 420
Because of this helmet of salvation all the senses in our head remain intact. It especially protects the eyes. Solomon in Ecclesiastes notes that “the eyes of the wise are in the head.” Paul understood the importance of headship. He knew why the eyes are located in the head. If Christ is the head of a person of faith and “the eyes of the wise are in the head,” it follows that all our senses, mind, thought, speech and counsel (if, that is, we are wise) are in Christ. .
