AT Irenæus’ request S. Ambrose points out the scope of the
Epistle to the Ephesians. Therein is proposed to us a heavenly
inheritance, a seat in heavenly places together with Christ,
Who has obtained freedom for us. It sets forth to us charity,
whereby we are united to Christ, as the end of faith. He adds
that no other Epistle contains the mention of so many blessings,
and he briefly recounts these one by one.
