The fact is that even when we have flesh in front of us, flesh is always behind the spirit that moves it. So flesh is just a pawn, but the real force is spirit.
However, as you have that version, you can time after time copy extracts of the same and search them on Google. You may end up identifying what the version really is.
Thank you for sharing.
God bless you
There are no evil spirits in Heaven or Heavens (Sky). Thats not to say there no evil spirits transversing thru the sky looking for evil men and minds.....So, in that respect, there are evil spirits in the "Heavens". One view.
"....against spirituall wickednes in high places"
Another view. A more reasonable view when taken with the theme of the entire chapter.
This "High Places" are political offices of Man. Men who work evil in secret. Rulers who spread deceit....
Taken together,
"against the rulers of the darknes of this world, against spiritual wickednes in high places."
I find it interesting that the word "sword" here is the same word used for sword in Revelation 1:16; Revelation 2:12,16; Revelation 19:15; and Revelation 19:21. ([Greek #4501 - in a James Strong concordance [cover and pages missing])
In other usages, #3162 is used for sword.
The #4501 is always referencing Jesus and the Word of God; whereas, #3162 seems to reference a physical sword.
Once in Hebrews 4:12, the #3162 is used saying the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword... So the word of God is being contrasted with a physical sword.
Also, in Ephesians 6:17 the #3162 is used; but, the sword we are told to take (the sword of the Spirit) is the Word of God.
I find it interesting that the sword in Revelation 6:8 is #4501.
I thank God for the instruction.
Thank you
