Colossians 2:19-23 and not adhering to the head, from which the whole body, being by means of joints and ligaments supplied and knit together, is to receive the divine increase.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁹ and not adhering to the head, from which the whole body, being by means of joints and ligaments supplied and knit together, is to receive the divine increase. ²⁰ If you, then, have died with the Christ from the elements of the world, why are you, as if you were living in the world, troubled with these dogmas, ²¹ "Touch not; taste not; handle not;" ²² which all tend to corruption by this improper use according to the injunctions and doctrines of those men. ²³ These indeed have a show of wisdom in will-worship and humility and self denial. Are they not in some estimation for the gratification of the flesh?
