2748.—The Whole Family in Heaven. Eph. 3:15.

By Editor

From whom does the whole family in heaven and earth receive their name? From God the Father, or Christ the Son? And is it revealed in His word what that family name will be? N. A. B.
According to Eph. 3:14, 15 the family name is that of the Father. See the American Revised Version from later and better Greek texts: "For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named." What one of the great names of the Creator will be used as the family name, we know not. It may be "Jehovah," God's great covenant name.
