# made you able to have a share

"allowed you to share"

# made you able

Here Paul is focusing on his readers as receivers of God's blessings. But he does not mean that he himself has no share in those blessings.

# inheritance

Receiving what God has promised believers is spoken of as if it were inheriting property and wealth from a family member.

# in light

"in the glory of his presence". This idea is opposite to the idea of the dominion of darkness in the next verse.
