The Practical Section
3:14 to 6:24

All knowledge may be divided into two categories: pure or theoretical knowledge and applied or practical knowledge. In most of his letters, Paul begins with pure doctrinal knowledge and ends with applied or practical knowledge. In Rabbi Sha’ul’s letter to the Ephesians, from Chapter 1 verse 1 to Chapter 3 verse 13, the apostle deals with doctrine (the calling of the Church), and from Chapter 3 verse 14 to Chapter 6 verse 24, he deals with the application of those doctrines (the conduct of the Church).
