π Ephesians 2:4-5 (NKJV)
"But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved)."
π Exegetical Insight: "Rich in mercy" (plousios en eleei) - plousios means abundant wealth; eleos is compassionate mercy toward the miserable. "Made us alive together" (synezΕopoiΔsen) - syn means together with; zΕopoieΕ means to make alive or vivify. "Even when we were dead" (kai ontas hΔmas nekrous) - present participle indicating ongoing state of death. God didn't wait for us to improve - He made us alive while we were still dead.
