HERITAGE
(
$
, 2820), primarily, “to cast lots” or “to choose by lot,” then, “to assign
a portion,” is used in the passive voice in Eph. 1:11, “we were made a heritage,”
RV
(
KJV
,
“we have obtained an inheritance”). The
RV
is in agreement with such OT passages as
Deut. 4:20, “a people of inheritance”; 9:29; 32:9; Ps. 16:6. The meaning “were chosen by
lot,” as in the Vulgate, and in 1 Sam. 14:41, indicating the freedom of election without
human will (so Chrysostom and Augustine), is not suited to this passage.¶
