Ephesians 2:15-16 by abolishing in His fleshly body the entire Jewish law of commandments contained in decrees. This was so that He could create in unity with Himself one new person i.e., the church out of the two peoples i.e., Jews and Gentiles, thereby bringing about peace between them.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ by abolishing in His fleshly body the [entire Jewish] law of commandments contained in decrees. [This was] so that He could create in [unity with] Himself one new person [i.e., the church] out of the two peoples [i.e., Jews and Gentiles], thereby bringing about peace [between them]. ¹⁶ [This was also intended] to reestablish harmony between both of these peoples and God in [this] one body, through [Christ’s death on] the cross. By doing this He put to death the hostility [between them].
