Colossians 2:19 in Context — Colossians 2
17 c’était l’ombre des choses à venir, mais le corps est en Christ.
18 Qu’aucun homme, sous une apparence d’humilité et par un culte des anges, ne vous ravisse à son gré le prix de la course, tandis qu’il s’abandonne à ses visions et qu’il est enflé d’un vain orgueil par ses pensées charnelles,
19 sans s’attacher au chef, dont tout le corps, assisté et solidement assemblé par des jointures et des liens, tire l’accroissement que Dieu donne.
20 Si vous êtes morts avec Christ aux rudiments du monde, pourquoi, comme si vous viviez dans le monde, vous impose-t-on ces préceptes:
21 Ne prends pas! Ne goûte pas! Ne touche pas!
