In Ephesians 1:11, the aorist passive indicative plural form occurs in the statement about those in him; the APB renders the clause, "we also obtained an inheritance," followed by predestination according to the purpose and plan of God's will.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Ephesians 1:11, the APB presents the clause as "we also obtained an inheritance." This identifies the verse-level presentation rather than a precise English equivalent for the form.
