Central to the message of Ephesians is the re-creation of the human family according to God’s original kingdom intention. In His kingdom, Jews and Gentiles are brought together in Christ as one people. For those who trust in Jesus, the distinction between Jew and Gentile is abolished by His sacrificial death. So, no hindrance remains for reuniting all humanity as the people of God with Christ as the head (Ephesians 1:22-23).
