Ephesians:4:16 @{From which} (\ex hou\). Out of which as the source of energy and direction. {Fitly framed} (\sunarmologoumenon\). See strkjv@2:21| for this verb. {Through that which every joint supplieth} (\dia pass haphs ts epichorgias\). Literally, "through every joint of the supply." See strkjv@Colossians:2:19| for \haph\ and strkjv@Phillipians:1:19| for the late word \epichorgia\ (only two examples in N.T.) from \epichorge\, to supply (Colossians:2:19|). {In due measure} (\en metri\). Just "in measure" in the Greek, but the assumption is that each part of the body functions properly in its own sphere. {Unto the building up of itself} (\eis oikodomn heautou\). Modern knowledge of cell life in the human body greatly strengthens the force of Paul's metaphor. This is the way the body grows by cooperation under the control of the head and all "in love" (\en agapi\).
