Dear Dale,
     You bring out an important emphasis in stressing the relevance of Eph
2:15 to Eph 4:22-24. I recently studied Colossians with Darrell Bock, who
brings out the same truth concerning Col 3:10:

Col. 3:10 and have put on the new man, that is being renewed unto knowledge
after the image of him that created him:

This idea also appears in some commentaries. You seem to consider the "new
humanity" of Ephesians 2:15 solely in terms of Gentile-Jew relations. But
it is a new creation (2 Cor 5:17), with implications for every aspect of
life. The relations between Jew and Gentile are one element of the "new
humanity."

                                        Yours,
                                        Harold Holmyard
