Romanos

  • Concern for Israel

  • |Romanos 9:1| I am telling the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience testifies with me [enlightened and prompted] by the Holy Spirit,

  • |Romanos 9:2| that I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.

  • |Romanos 9:3| For [if it were possible] I would wish that I myself were accursed, [separated, banished] from Christ for the sake [of the salvation] of my brothers, my natural kinsmen,

  • |Romanos 9:9| For this is what the promise said: "About this time [next year] I will come, and Sarah shall have a son."

  • |Romanos 9:10| And not only that, but this too: Rebekah conceived twin sons by one man [under the same circumstances], by our father Isaac;
