‏ Romans 11:36

 Of him ( εξ αυτου ),

 through him ( δι' αυτου ),

 unto him ( εις αυτον ). By these three prepositions Paul ascribes the universe ( τα παντα ) with all the phenomena concerning creation, redemption, providence to God as the

 Source ( εξ ), the

 Agent ( δ ), the

 Goal ( εις ).

 For ever ( εις τους αιωνας ). "For the ages." Alford terms this doxology in verses 33-36 "the sublimest apostrophe existing even in the pages of inspiration itself."
