He calls them from the impurity of the Gentiles; 24. to put on the new man; 25. to cast off lying; 29. and corrupt communication. and to put on The phrase "put on" in Greek is "endysasthai," which conveys the idea of clothing oneself. This metaphor of clothing is significant in the New Testament, symbolizing a transformation or adoption of a new identity. In the ancient world, clothing was a marker of status and identity, and here, Paul is urging believers to adopt a new spiritual identity. This act of "putting on" is not passive but requires intentionality and action, suggesting a conscious decision to embrace the new life in Christ. the new self created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness Holiness (used only here and in Luke 1:75) is "purity" consecrated to God in His "Holy One" (Acts 2:27). It describes the "purity of heart" of which our Lord Himself speaks as a still higher grace, gifted with a higher reward, than even "hunger and thirst after righteousness" (Matthew 5:6; Matthew 5:8). "Righteousness" is goodness shown to others, to man and to God: "holiness" is goodness in itself, as it is in "the High and Holy One who inhabiteth eternity." Stress is laid upon it here in contrast with the lusts and uncleanness described above. . . . Verse 24. - And put on the new man. As the fruit of inward renewal, let there be outward renovation.

Which after God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth. "After God," equivalent to "after the image of him that created him" (Colossians 3:10). Some think" the new man" equivalent to "Christ" (Romans 13:14), constituted the Head of renewed humanity, as Adam of depraved. But this would not correspond with the exhortation to put off the old man, nor should we be exhorted to put on Christ after being exhorted to be renewed in the spirit of our minds. In what sense, then, has the "new man" been created? The idea presented itself to the apostle in the abstract - there has been a creation of a new man; but concretely, we have to conform to the Divine creation, in respect of righteousness and holiness; righteousness denoting personal uprightness and fidelity to all social duties; holiness, the state of the spirit toward God. The last words, "of truth," denote the relation of righteousness and holiness to the truth. The words are opposed to "of deceit" in ver. 22. Lust is bred of deceit, but righteousness and holiness of truth. They never deceive, never disappoint, are solid to the end.Parallel Commentaries ...
