Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Romans 8:22

22. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now—If for man's sake alone the earth was cursed, it cannot surprise us that it should share in his recovery. And if so, to represent it as sympathizing with man's miseries, and as looking forward to his complete redemption as the period of its own emancipation from its present sin-blighted condition, is a beautiful thought, and in harmony with the general teaching of Scripture on the subject.

23. And not only they, but ourselves also—or "not only [so], but even we ourselves"—that is, besides the inanimate creation. which have the first-fruits of the Spirit—or, "the Spirit as the first-fruits" of our full redemption (compare :-), moulding the heart to a heavenly frame and attempering it to its future element. even we ourselves—though we have so much of heaven already within us. groan within ourselves—under this "body of sin and death," and under the manifold "vanity and vexation of... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Romans 8:24

24. For we are saved by hope—rather, "For in hope we are saved"; that is, it is more a salvation in hope than as yet in actual possession. but hope that is seen is not hope—for the very meaning of hope is, the expectation that something now future will become present. for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?—the latter ending when the other comes. read more

25. But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it—that is, then, patient waiting for it is our fitting attitude. read more

26, 27. Likewise the Spirit also, c.—or, "But after the like manner doth the Spirit also help. our infirmities—rather (according to the true reading), "our infirmity" not merely the one infirmity here specified, but the general weakness of the spiritual life in its present state, of which one example is here given. for we know not what we should pray for as we ought—It is not the proper matter of prayer that believers are at so much loss about, for the fullest directions are given them on this... read more

27. And—rather, "But," inarticulate though these groanings be. he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he—the Spirit maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God—As the Searcher of hearts, He watches the surging emotions of them in prayer, and knows perfectly what the Spirit means by the groanings which He draws forth within us, because that blessed Intercessor pleads by them only for what God Himself designs to bestow. Note, (1) Are... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Romans 8:28

28. And—or, "Moreover," or "Now"; noting a transition to a new particular. we know, c.—The order in the original is more striking: "We know that to them that love God" (compare 1 Corinthians 2:9 Ephesians 6:24; James 1:12; James 2:5) "all things work together for good [even] to them who are the called (rather, 'who are called') according to His (eternal) purpose." Glorious assurance! And this, it seems, was a "household word," a "known" thing, among believers. This working of all things for... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Romans 8:29

29. For—as touching this "calling according to his purpose" ( :-). whom he did foreknow he also did predestinate—foreordain. In what sense are we to take the word "foreknow" here? "Those who He foreknew would repent and believe," say Pelagians of every age and every hue. But this is to thrust into the text what is contrary to the whole spirit, and even letter, of the apostle's teaching (see Romans 9:11; 2 Timothy 1:9). In Romans 11:2; Psalms 1:6, God's "knowledge" of His people cannot be... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Romans 8:30

30. Moreover—"And," or "Now"; explanatory of :- —In "predestinating us to be conformed to the image of His Son" in final glory, He settled all the successive steps of it. Thus whom he did predestinate, them he also called—The word "called" (as HODGE and others truly observe) is never in the Epistles of the New Testament applied to those who have only the outward invitation of the Gospel (as in Matthew 20:16; Matthew 22:14). It always means "internally, effectually, savingly called." It denotes... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Romans 8:31

31. What shall we then say to these things?—"We can no farther go, think, wish" [BENGEL]. This whole passage, to Romans 8:34, and even to the end of the chapter, strikes all thoughtful interpreters and readers, as transcending almost every thing in language, while OLSHAUSEN notices the "profound and colossal" character of the thought. If God be for us, who can be against us?—If God be resolved and engaged to bring us through, all our enemies must be His; and "Who would set the briers and thorns... read more
