Colossians 2:17 in context

  1. 15Having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
  2. 16Let no one therefore judge you in eating, or in drinking, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,
  3. 17which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ’s.
  4. 18Let no one rob you of your prize by self-abasement and worshiping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
  5. 19and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God’s growth.
