George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Romans 5:5

God having prevented us with his gifts when we did not at all deserve them, having showered upon us the blessings of faith, charity, patience, and fidelity, we cannot but have the greatest confidence that after this pledge and assurance of his good will towards us, he well finish the work he has begun, and bring us to his heavenly kingdom. (Calmet) --- Not only the gift of the Holy Spirit, but the Spirit himself, is given to us, who resides in our soul as in his own temple, who sanctifies it,... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Romans 5:6

Why did Christ...die for the ungodly? He shews Christ's great mercy and love for mankind, that he would die for us, who were sinners, and consequently his enemies. How few are there that will lay down their lives for a just man, or for a just cause? --- Perhaps for a good man. That is, for another, who has been good to him, his friend or benefactor, we may find one that will expose or lay down his life. But Christ, in due time, appointed by the divine decree, died for sinners, for us all.... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Romans 5:1-5

1-5 A blessed change takes place in the sinner's state, when he becomes a true believer, whatever he has been. Being justified by faith he has peace with God. The holy, righteous God, cannot be at peace with a sinner, while under the guilt of sin. Justification takes away the guilt, and so makes way for peace. This is through our Lord Jesus Christ; through him as the great Peace-maker, the Mediator between God and man. The saints' happy state is a state of grace. Into this grace we are brought,... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Romans 5:6-11

6-11 Christ died for sinners; not only such as were useless, but such as were guilty and hateful; such that their everlasting destruction would be to the glory of God's justice. Christ died to save us, not in our sins, but from our sins; and we were yet sinners when he died for us. Nay, the carnal mind is not only an enemy to God, but enmity itself, chap. Romans 8:7; Colossians 1:21. But God designed to deliver from sin, and to work a great change. While the sinful state continues, God loathes... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Romans 5:1-99

Romans 5 WE MAY USE the words, “justified by faith,” in two senses. By simple faith in Christ. and in God who raised Him from the dead, we are justified, and this whether we have the happy assurance of it in our hearts or not. But then, in the second place, it is by faith that we know that we are justified. Not by feelings nor by visions or other subjective impressions, but by faith in God and in His Word. As the result of our justification we have peace with God. Observe the distinction... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Romans 5:1-5

The Blessed Consequences of Justification. A recital of the blessings: v. 1. Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ; v. 2. by whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. v. 3. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also, knowing that tribulation worketh patience; v. 4. and patience, experience; and experience, hope; v. 5. and hope maketh not ashamed. The... read more

Paul E. Kretzmann

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Romans 5:5-11

The basis of the Christian's hope: v. 5. Because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. v. 6. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. v. 7. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. v. 8. But God commendeth His love toward us in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. v. 9. Much more, then, being now justified by His... read more

Johann Peter Lange

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Romans 5:1-11

Ninth Section.—The fruit of justification: Peace with God, and the development of the new life into the experience of Christian hope. The new worship of Christians: They have the free access to grace into the Holy of holies. Therefore they rejoice in the hope of the glory of God, and of the revelation of the real Shekinah of God in the real Holy of holies. They even glory in tribulation also, by which this hope is consummated. The love of God in Christ as security for the realization of... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Romans 5:1

Romans LET US HAVE PEACE Rom_5:1 . In the rendering of the Revised Version, ‘Let us have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,’ the alteration is very slight, being that of one letter in one word, the substitution of a long ‘o’ for a short one. The majority of manuscripts of authority read ‘let us have,’ making the clause an exhortation and not a statement. I suppose the reason why, in some inferior MSS., the statement takes the place of the exhortation is because it was felt to be... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Romans 5:2

Romans THE SOURCES OF HOPE ACCESS INTO GRACE Rom_5:2 . I may be allowed to begin with a word or two of explanation of the terms of this passage. Note then, especially, that also which sends us back to the previous clause, and tells us that our text adds something to what was spoken of there. What was spoken of there? ‘The peace of God’ which comes to a man by Jesus Christ through faith, the removal of enmity, and the declaration of righteousness. But that peace with God, which is the... read more
