Titus 3:6

6 welchen er ausgegossen hat über uns reichlich durch Jesum Christum, unsern Heiland,

Titus 3:6 Meaning and Commentary

Titus 3:6

Which he shed on us abundantly
"Or richly"; either which love he shed abroad in the hearts of those whom he regenerated and renewed by his Spirit; or which water of regeneration, that is, grace, comparable to water, he plentifully shed, and caused to abound where sin had done; or rather whom, or which Holy Spirit, with his gifts and graces, such as faith, hope, and love, and every other, he poured forth in great abundance on them; see ( Isaiah 44:3 ) ( 1 Timothy 1:14 )

through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
the love and kindness of God the Father our Saviour, comes through him; the mercy of God streams through him; the salvation itself is by, and through him; the grace communicated in regeneration and renovation is out of his fulness; the Spirit himself is given forth from him; and every supply of grace, by which the work is carried on, comes out of his hands; and everything wrought in us, that is well pleasing in the sight of God, is through him; and even the gift of God, eternal life itself.

Titus 3:6 In-Context

4 Da aber erschien die Freundlichkeit und Leutseligkeit Gottes, unsers Heilandes,

5 nicht um der Werke willen der Gerechtigkeit, die wir getan hatten, sondern nach seiner Barmherzigkeit machte er uns selig durch das Bad der Wiedergeburt und Erneuerung des heiligen Geistes,

6 welchen er ausgegossen hat über uns reichlich durch Jesum Christum, unsern Heiland,

7 auf daß wir durch desselben Gnade gerecht und Erben seien des ewigen Lebens nach der Hoffnung.

8 Das ist gewißlich wahr; solches will ich, daß du fest lehrest, auf daß die, so an Gott gläubig geworden sind, in einem Stand guter Werke gefunden werden. Solches ist gut und nütze den Menschen.
