Philo of Alexandria considered the Torah to be of absolute authority. By using the allegorical interpretation, he tried to prove that the Holy Scripture is a thesaurus of godly truths and philosophy alike, which contains moral and spiritual guidance resonating with the teachings of the Greek philosophy.

The main purpose of this paper is to offer the comparative analysis of Gal 3:28 and Col 3:11 in order to unfold a possible answer of the text to the question: how did the Early Church define the idea of “oneness in Christ” in the context of the social and cultural diversity? In our attempt to find an answer to the above mentioned question we will use mainly the hermeneutical principle: Scriptura Sacra sui ipsius interpres est.
