The idea involved is that man had been at enmity and was now atoned (at-oned) and brought into concord with God. It will be noted that the work is described as originating with the Father and accomplished by the mediation of the Son.

More accurately, the verbs should run: who reconciled. . . . and gave. The word translated "reconciliation" is, it should be noted, the same as that rendered "atonement" in Romans 5:11.
