May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
Note 10 at Eph. 3:18: "Being rooted and grounded in love" causes us to comprehend. Understanding love opens up the doors of understanding of our Father because "God is love" (1 Jn. 4:8).
Note 11 at Eph. 3:18: Paul's use of the word "all" makes it clear that this understanding of God's love is not reserved for just a few. The Lord wants us all to know "the breadth, and length, and depth, and height" of His love.
Note 12 at Eph. 3:18: God's love is not one dimensional. There is width, length, depth and height to it, which can only be comprehended through the revelation knowledge (see note 1 at Lk. 2:26, p. 56; see note 9 at Jn. 6:45, p. 243) of the Holy Spirit. Those who have only a superficial knowledge of God's love are like a person who looks at a one dimensional picture of the real thing.
