Colossians 2:17 Douay-Rheims

Which are a shadow of things to come, but the body is of Christ.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown

1871 Reformed

things to come--the blessings of the Christian covenant, the substance of which Jewish ordinances were but the type. Compare "ages to come," that is, the Gospel dispensation (Eph 2:7). Heb 2:5, "the world to come." the body is of Christ--The real substance (of the blessings typified by the law) belongs to Christ (Heb 8:5; Heb 10:1).
