Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:10

‘And again he says, “Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people.” ’ ‘And again he says.’ Here the Scriptures are seen as supplying the voice of God (‘He says’). This citation is taken from Deuteronomy 32:43. While there is no Messianic connection there it advances the previous theme of the Gentiles glorifying the God of Israel, while including the extra thought that they will do so along with God’s own people. The two are to be united as one in their praise of God, as indeed they were in the church... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:11

‘And again, “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles, and let all the peoples praise him.’ This citation is taken from Psalms 117:1. The advance in thought here is concerning the universal nature of the praise. All the Gentiles and ‘all the peoples’ are to praise Him indicating the widespread nature of the spread of God’s truth. So what began as praise being brought to the Gentiles through the Messiah, has been expanded to indicate that both Gentile and Jew will praise God together, and has again... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:12

‘And again, Isaiah says, “There will be the root of Jesse, and he who arises to rule over the Gentiles, on him will the Gentiles hope.” ’ Once more, in a citation from Isaiah 11:10 LXX, emphasis is laid on the Messiah, the root of Jesse, and the fact that the Gentiles will look to Him. So Paul opens and closes his citations with a reference to the Messiah. In this verse, however, there is no mention of the glorifying of God which has been the feature of the previous three quotations. Rather the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:13

‘Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.’ Having described the hope that the Gentiles will have in the Messiah (Romans 15:12), and the confirmation of the promises to ‘the circumcised’ (the Jews - Romans 15:8), Paul now speaks of God as ‘the God of hope’. In Romans 15:5 He was the God of patient endurance and encouragement (comfort), now He is seen as the God of hope. It is from Him that all His people... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:14

‘And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brothers and sisters, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.’ As in Romans 1:11-12 Paul, as he approaches the end of his long letter, approaches the Roman church tactfully as he is about to speak of his own ministry. He knows that to the majority of them he is unknown, except possibly by reputation, and he recognises that he cannot speak to them in the same way as he could to a church... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:14-21

The Extent And Focal Point Of Paul’s Own Ministry To The Gentiles (15:14-21). Paul sees his own ministry as an extension of the ministry of Christ, the Messiah (Romans 15:16). He has gone out in the Name of the Messiah to minister the Gospel of God to the Gentiles, offering up to God the Gentiles who believe, as they are made acceptable to God through the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit. And he has done this as the Messiah has wrought through him by word and deed, and by the power of signs... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:15-16

‘But I write the more boldly to you in some measure, as putting you again in remembrance, because of the grace that was given me of God, that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.’ Nevertheless he does see himself as having a right to address and guide them because he considers that he has been appointed as a kind of ministering-priest by God on... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:1-6

Romans 15:1-Joshua : . Harmony through Self-renouncement. Romans 15:1 f. “ Strength carries with it the duty of bearing others’ weaknesses, not of pleasing oneself” ( cf. 1 Corinthians 10:33). “ The strong” are men of robust faith, in contrast with “ the weak” of Romans 14:1. The Christian is to “ please his neighbour” not by humouring his failings, but by “ aiming at his good, with a view to building him up in faith and character ( cf. Romans 14:19). Romans 15:3 . So “ the Christ” bore... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:7-13

Romans 15:7-1 Chronicles : . The Gentiles Heirs of Israel’ s Hope.— The differences discussed ran up into the great cleavage between Jew and Gentile, on which Paul has a final word to say. Romans 15:7 . “ Wherefore”— in order to glorify God together—“ receive one another, as the Christ has received you ( cf. Romans 14:1 ; Romans 14:3; also Luke 15:2, John 6:37) unto the glory of God”— a glory to be realised in the united worship of mankind ( Romans 15:8-2 Kings :). Romans 15:8 f. With... read more

Romans 15:14-Ecclesiastes : . The Present Juncture in Paul’ s Ministry.— Paul resumes the thread dropped at Romans 1:15. Romans 15:14-Nehemiah : . He does not think the Roman Christians in need of correction; he “ has written, however,” and “ in part” of the epistle (in Romans 6:12-Ecclesiastes :, and much of Romans 12, 14) “ somewhat boldly, by way of further reminder” of familiar truths ( cf. Romans 6:17)— a liberty warranted by “ the special grace” he had received ( cf. Romans... read more
