Ephesians 4:9 in Context — Ephesians 4
7 Mas a graça foi dada a cada um de nós conforme a medida do dom de Cristo.
8 Por isso diz: Quando ele subiu ao alto, levou cativo o cativeiro, e deu dons às pessoas.
9 (O que significa este “ele subiu”, senão que ele também antes tinha descido às partes mais baixas da terra?)
10 Aquele que desceu é também o mesmo que subiu muito acima de todos os céus, para preencher todas as coisas.
11 E ele mesmo deu uns como apóstolos, outros como profetas, outros como evangelistas, e outros como pastores e instrutores.
