Efésios 4:27 Meaning and Commentary

Ephesians 4:27

Neither give place to the devil.
] Or "to the accuser", or "slanderer"; that is, to any adversary, that takes delight in slandering and reproaching the saints; give such no room, nor reason, to calumniate the doctrine and ways of Christ, through an unbecoming conversation, by lying and sinful anger, or by other means; or rather the devil, the great accuser of the brethren is meant; and the Ethiopic version renders it, "do not give way to Satan"; which is done, when men indulge any lust or corruption; and when they easily fall in with his suggestions and temptations; when they are off of their watch and guard; and when they do not resist, but quietly yield unto him.

Efésios 4:27 In-Context

25 Pelo que deixai a mentira, e falai a verdade cada um com o seu próximo, pois somos membros uns dos outros.
26 Irai-vos, e não pequeis; não se ponha o sol sobre a vossa ira;
27 nem deis lugar ao Diabo.
28 Aquele que furtava, não furte mais; antes trabalhe, fazendo com as mãos o que é bom, para que tenha o que repartir com o que tem necessidade.
29 Não saia da vossa boca nenhuma palavra torpe, mas só a que seja boa para a necessária edificação, a fim de que ministre graça aos que a ouvem.
