Vincent's Word Studies in the NT

Ephesians 1:15

Your faith [τ η ν κ α θ υ μ α ς π ι σ τ ι ν]. The Greek phrase is nowhere else used by Paul. Lit., as Rev., the faith which is among you. Expositors endeavor to make a distinction between this and Paul's common phrase hJ pistiv uJmwn your faith, but they differ widely, and the distinction is at best doubtful.

Love. Omit.

Unto all the saints [τ η ν ε ι ς π α ν τ α ς τ ο υ ς α γ ι ο υ ς]. Lit., that which is toward all, etc. Love being omitted, this refers to faith : faith which displays its work and fruits toward fellow Christians. See on Philippians 1:5, Ephesians 1

:6Compare work of faith, 1 Thessalonians 1:3. Though love is not mentioned, yet faith works by love. Galatians 5:6.
