# to us

The word "us" does not include the Colossians. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-exclusive]])

# your love in the Spirit

Paul speaks of the Holy Spirit as if he were a place in which the believers were located. Alternate translation: "how the Holy Spirit has enabled you to love believers" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
