The early church

"Unto Him be the glory," he concludes, "in the Church and in Christ Jesus, unto all generations forever and ever. Amen." Well does he close the discourse with prayer and doxology; for right were it that He, who hath bestowed upon us such vast gifts, should be glorified and blessed, so that this is even a proper part of our amazement at His mercies, to give glory for the things advanced to us at God's hands through Jesus Christ. "The glory in the Church." Well might he say this, forasmuch as the Church alone can last on to eternity.
John Chrysostom · d. 407Homilies on Ephesians

Commentary

Matthew Henry · Verses 20–21

It is proper always to end prayers with praises. Let us expect more, and ask for more, encouraged by what Christ has already done for our souls, being assured that the conversion of sinners, and the comfort of believers, will be to his glory, for ever and ever.
