Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 2:14

14. By nature By natural conscience. Yet even in heathen dispensations nature is not alone and unaided. Paul’s own doctrine is, that the glorious headship of Christ is as wide as the inglorious headship of Adam. Through a universal though unknown Saviour is dispensed a universal Spirit, a universal drawing of the Father. Do… things… in the law The apostle does not affirm but assume the fact that the law is sometimes truly fulfilled by the Gentiles. A law unto themselves They are their... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 2:15

15. Work of the law… hearts The work of the law may mean either the practice which the law enjoins, or the operation of the law itself. The former makes the clearer sense. The work of the law is the deed or duty marked out by the law. The written law or decalogue is mostly prohibitory; the unwritten law of the heart is positive, enjoining a course and a work. The heart is, as it were, a tablet; and as the non-work was written on the tablet of stone, so the positive work is written on... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 2:16

16. In the day The parenthesis including Romans 2:13-15, and so connecting this verse with Romans 2:12, makes the sense clear. But it is the whole doctrine of retribution (6-15) which is to be consummated in that day. Secrets of men All the hidden thoughts, words, and deeds which constitute their moral history and character. Wickedness can be concealed in the breast, or in the darkness; but the dread day of Christ will uncover it. read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 2:17

17. Behold This is a spirited and direct address, as is the first appeal to the moralized Gentile in Romans 2:1. But the best authorities decide that the true reading is, “But if than art called a Jew.” The consequent corresponding to this if is nowhere affirmatively stated, but is conveyed in the necessary reply of the questions following. Restest in Reposest or reliest upon. Boast of God The very word Jew had assumed a religious signification, implying a believer in the one Supreme... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 2:17-29

2. Condition of the Jewish Race, Romans 2:17 to Romans 3:20 . The case of the Jew (17-24) with the written law is essentially parallel with that of the Gentile with the unwritten law, 12-15. Yet the apostle treats with a more careful deference. By a series of interrogations, more delicate yet more forcible than affirmations, he exhibits the wide discrepancies between their boasting of the law and their persistent breaking it. Gradually and carefully he approaches the conclusion that the... read more
