Romanos 9:13-31 NVI

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Romans 9:1-33

Paul has just closed the eighth chapter of Romans in which he has taken us into the very peaks of the spiritual experiences that are ours in Christ Jesus. Showing us that we have this glorious place in the Lord where nothing can separate us from the love of God, neither tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or peril, nor nakedness, nor sword, for he is persuaded and in all these things we are more than conquerors. And that neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities,... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Romans 9:1-33

Romans 9:1 . I say the truth in Christ, I lie not. These forms of speech are equivalent to a solemn oath, and emanate from a heart deeply imbued with the sentiments of the Saviour, who often wept over his unhappy country. The holy apostle, having placed the church on a hill in the preseding chapter, turns his weeping eyes towards his kinsmen after the flesh, who were enraged against him, because he had denied them salvation by the works of the law, and had defended the gentiles as co-equal... read more

Romans 9:6-13Not as though the Word of God hath taken none effect. God’s faithfulness vindicatedThe apostle’s language is abrupt and broken, and fitly represents his feelings. He had felt his spirit drawn onward and upward as he proceeded with his enumeration of the high prerogatives of his countrymen, till at length he found himself climbing the ladder which Jacob saw, add which leads directly to “glory, honour, and immortality.” He was, as it were, “caught up” in a rapture, and carried “off... read more

Romans 9:13Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. Jacob loved, but Esau hatedIt is evident that to the writer it was a mystery why God should “love” Jacob more than Esau. He even goes so far as to imply that, at first sight, it has the character of “unrighteousness” in God. But he instantly crushes the thought (Romans 9:14). St. Paul makes it the basis of some thoughts about “election.” It would be impossible that there should be a God of infinite knowledge and no “election.” But there are... read more

Romans 9:17-18For the Scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up. Pharaoh1. How can we reconcile it with the Divine justice and mercy that a man should be brought upon the stage of life to illustrate the powerlessness of the creature who presumes to measure himself against the will of the Creator? The truth is, that such passages of Holy Scripture state only one side of the complete truth, viz., God’s sovereignty. They do not notice, as other passages, man’s... read more

Romans 9:19-20Thou wilt say then unto me, why doth He yet find fault? The proper attitude of man towards Divine mysteriesThe full spirit of this part of Paul’s reply may be brought out by considering it as addressed to the objector--I. As a man. Considering the appeal in this light, it impresses a lesson of great practical importance, namely, to beware of arraigning, with irreverent rashness and self-sufficiency, the procedure of the Divine Being, as represented to us by Himself. Nothing,... read more

13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. Ver. 13. Esau have I hated ] i.e. I have not loved him, but passed him by; and this preterition is properly opposed to election.
