I have had such a hard time with reading and learning all of my life. I'm the youngest of six children born into a Baptist Ministers family and am now sixty eight years of age. I have tried to read and understand the Bible for years and I haven't been saved very long so tonight as I started reading the devils starded the plan of interrupting me every verse causing my attention to fall off course. It was like the lord told me to use my recorded version of the KJV of the Bible and I did. Then the devil made the lord and we'll shout it out!,lightning not good. Then the lord hit me with use your tablet and read alongside with your recorded version and Praise God it's working. Then not only has he opened the door for just reading, he has given me commentary and discussion. PRAISE THE LORD AND THE KEEPER OF THIS.ORG of the KJV of Gods word for people like me. You'll meet me in heaven one day

Ephesians 6 Commentaries
6:12 For our wrestling is not only, not chiefly, against flesh and blood - Weak men, or fleshly appetites. But against principalities, against powers - The mighty princes of all the infernal legions. And great is their power, and that likewise of those legions whom they command. Against the rulers of the world - Perhaps these principalities and powers remain mostly in the citadel of their kingdom of darkness. But there are other evil spirits who range abroad, to whom the provinces of the world are committed. Of the darkness - This is chiefly spiritual darkness. Of this age - Which prevails during the present state of things. Against wicked spirits - Who continually oppose faith, love, holiness, either by force or fraud; and labour to infuse unbelief, pride, idolatry malice, envy, anger, hatred. In heavenly places - Which were once their abode, and which they still aspire to, as far as they are permitted.
People's Bible Notes for Ephesians 6:12
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle. Fights then were a hand to hand grapple. Not against flesh and blood. While flesh and blood may seem to assail us, the real enemies are evil spiritual powers. Against principalities, against powers. These terms designate different rank of evil spirits. These were fallen angels (see Ro 8:38). The same terms are applied to the different ranks of holy angels in Eph 1:21. Against the rulers of the darkness of this world. Satan is described as the ruler of this world (Joh 12:31 14:30 16:11) and the god of this world ( 2Co 4:4). He uses for his dominion not only evil spirits, but wicked men, and his sway is darkness rather than light. Against spiritual wickedness in high [places]. "Spiritual [hosts] of wickedness" (Revised Version). It is likely that the meaning is the same as in Eph 2:2 The high places, the air, is a dwelling place and medium of these evil influences.
why do the commentary notes of 1599 Geneva Bible refer to 1 Macc 4:59 in reference to John 10:22, but Macc is not a book available in this Bible or the KJV ?
Thank you Father for the Word of Everlasting Light. O the Greatest Story Ever Told and Recorded for the Joy of every Believer in Jesus Christ. I long for the New Jerusalem in which the Glory of the Lord will be the EVERLASTING LIGHT! Praise, Glory and Honor belong only to the Lamb of God which was slain on a Cross and the Blood that was shed for the Repentant sinner. HALLELUJAH! Our God Almighty Reigns yesterday, today and forevermore!
