Ephesians 4:22

That ye—following "Ye have been taught" (Ephesians 4:21).

concerning the former conversation—"in respect to your former way of life."

the old man—your old unconverted nature (Romans 6:6).

is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts—rather, "which is being corrupted ('perisheth,' compare Galatians 6:8, 'corruption,' that is, destruction) according to (that is, as might be expected from) the lusts of deceit." Deceit is personified; lusts are its servants and tools. In contrast to "the holiness of the truth," Ephesians 4:24, and "truth in Jesus," Ephesians 4:21; and answering to Gentile "vanity," Ephesians 4:17. Corruption and destruction are inseparably associated together. The man's old-nature-lusts are his own executioners, fitting him more and more for eternal corruption and death.
