Explanation: Okay, let’s break down this verse. It’s a pretty poetic and detailed way of saying something really important about God and His plan for us. Here’s a simplified explanation: Overall Meaning: This verse is essentially saying that God has revealed something special to us – the gospel (the good news) – and He wants us to share it with others. It’s like a secret message from God. Let's unpack it word by word: “Unto whom it was revealed…” - This means that we were told this secret. It wasn’t something we found on our own. “…that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister…” – God is showing us something for our benefit . He's letting us know the good news for us specifically. It’s about sharing a message that has importance to us. “the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven…” – This is the core of it. The “things” God is revealing are the stories and messages about Jesus Christ (and what He did). These stories are being told to us through people who've been spreading the good news of the gospel. “The Holy Ghost sent down from heaven” refers to the spirit that inspires and helps us understand God’s will. “…which things the angels desire to look into.” – Angels (spiritual beings) are being interested in these messages, meaning they want to understand them fully. In simpler terms: God is revealing a message of good news about Jesus Christ and sharing it with us. He wants us to know this message so we can share it with others. It's a privileged position – we have access to this important information. What does this verse mean for us? It’s a powerful reminder that God cares deeply about us and wants us to be involved in sharing His good news. It encourages us to be faithful messengers of the gospel! --- Do you want me to: Explain a specific aspect of this verse in more detail (like its connection to the idea of salvation)?
