Colossians 2:16 - Forerunner Commentary

Colossians 2:16

14 ^ahaving wiped out the¹ handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.

15 ^aHaving disarmed ^bprincipalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.

16 So let no one ^ajudge you in food or in drink, or regarding a¹ festival or a new moon or sabbaths,

17 ^awhich are a shadow of things to come, but the¹ substance is of Christ.

18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has¹ not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

19 and not holding fast to ^athe Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, ^bgrows with the increase that is from God.
