Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 9:6-18

Romans 9:6-Job : . God’ s Free Election. Romans 9:6-1 Samuel : . We must distinguish: “ to be of Israel, is not to be Israel.” Mere physical heredity counts for nothing: “ Isaac” was the proper “ seed” of Abraham, designated as “ the child of promise” ( Genesis 21:12, etc.). Here Isaac’ s case illustrates the sovereignty of God; in Romans 4:18-Ecclesiastes :, the efficacy of faith. Romans 9:10-1 Chronicles : . The case of Esau and Jacob is equally significant. Twin offspring of the same... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 9:19-29

Romans 9:19-Joel : . The Divine Sovereignty in Judgment. Romans 9:19 f. The hard saying just enunciated provokes the question, “ Why does He blame,” if the hardening is His doing and “ none may resist His will” ? Paul forgoes the obvious retort, that God’ s “ hardening” is a judgment on hardness of heart ( cf. Romans 2:5 , etc.), that Pharaoh (and Israel now) did resist God ( cf. Acts 7:51, etc.); he assails the spirit of contradiction: “ Nay, surely, O man, who art thou who repliest... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 9:1

The apostle being about to treat of the rejection of the Jews and the calling of the Gentiles, before he enters upon it, he premiseth a preface, to prepare the minds of the Jews to a patient reading or hearing the same; and in this preface, he solemnly protesteth his love to his nation, and his hearty grief for their rejection, that so it might the better appear, that these things were not written out of any spleen or malice, but out of conscience towards God and the truth. I say truth in... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 9:2

His grief for his nation and people he expresseth, 1. By the greatness of it; it was such as a woman hath in travail so the word imports. 2. By the continuance of it; it was continual, or without intermission. 3. By the seat of it; it was in his heart, and not outward in his face. The cause he doth not here set down, but it is easily gathered from what follows, viz. the obstinacy and infidelity, together with the rejection, of the Jews. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 9:3

I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ; or, separated from Christ. This verse hath greatly vexed interpreters. Some read it, I did wish myself accursed from Christ: q.d. Before my conversion, I was willing to be accursed from Christ, to be a violent persecutor of the Christians, and so to be held of them as accursed for my brethren’s sake. The vulgar Latin, and many Romanists, thus render the word ηυχομην, in the text; but the generality of interpreters read it as we do, not... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 9:4

In this and the following verse, he rehearseth the privileges and advantages the Jews had from God, above all other nations of the earth; and this he doth to show, that he had good reason to make such a wish, as in the foregoing verse; as also, that what he should declare concerning the Jews, and their ejection, did not proceed from any disrespect or disesteem of them. Israelites; i.e. the offspring of that holy patriarch Israel: this was the Jews’ first title of honour, that they descended... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 9:5

Whose are the fathers; who are lineally descended of the holy patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, with other holy fathers and prophets, and of the same blood. This was also a great privilege, of which the Jews boasted. Of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came; or out of whom; understand the people of the Jews, not the fathers. The meaning is, Christ took his human nature of their stock. It is the great honour of mankind, that Christ took not the nature of angels, but of man; and it is a... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 9:6

An objection is here obviated: the Jews might object and say: If they were cast off and rejected, then God is unfaithful, and all his promises made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and their seed, are ineffectual. To this he answers by a distinction of Israelites. Some are Israelites only in respect of their carnal generation; and others, again, are true Israelites, children of the promise, and of the faith of Abraham: see Romans 2:28,Romans 2:29. Now the promises of God were made to the true... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 9:7

He had before made a difference of Israelites, and now he makes a difference of the seed of Abraham. This was ever and anon in the mouths of the Jews: We are Abraham’s seed, John 8:33. But here he tells them, that all Abraham’s seed were not the children of the promise; for it was said to Sarah, Genesis 21:12, that the promised seed should be confined to Isaac’s line, of his issue should the Messiah come, and all the true seed of Abraham, who are born after the manner of Isaac, by the word and... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 9:8

q.d. That I may speak more plainly, all those that are the children of Abraham according to the flesh, are not therefore the adopted children of God; it is not their blood, but their faith, must make them such. There are some of Abraham’s seed, that are selected from the rest, to whom the promise was made, who are therefore called children of the promise; and of this sort are all they who are born after the Spirit, ( as Isaac is said to be, Galatians 4:29), whether Jews or Gentiles. The sense... read more
