Romans
9:3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren,
my kinsmen according to the flesh..(comments
on Romans 9:3)
Romans
9:4 Who are Israelites; to whom pertains.(not
in original, but inserted by translators to make the meaning clearer).the
adoption, and the glory and the covenants and the giving of the law and
the service of God and the promises;
Romans
9:6,7 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they
are not all Israel, which are of Israel...Neither, because they are the
seed of Abraham, are they all children. But, In Isaac shall thy seed be
called.
Romans
9:8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not
the children of God. But the children of the promise are counted for the
seed.
Romans
9:11 For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good
or evil, that the purpose of
God according to election might stand, not
of works, but of him that calls.
Romans
9:12-15 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. As
it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. What shall we
say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. For he saith to
Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy and I will have compassion
on whom I will have compassion..(some
people have a terrible life which seems so unfair; but, all balances, perhaps
in
some future time, and, if an individual learns today the laws of mind
and universe, he can take action to do something about his life right away)
Romans
9:15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy,
and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
Romans
9:16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth,
but of God that sheweth mercy.
Romans
9:17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose
have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my
name might be declared throughout all the earth.
Romans
9:18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy and whom he
will he hardeneth.
Romans
9:19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who
hath resisted his will? Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against
God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why
have you made me thus?
Romans
9:20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall
the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus.
Romans
9:21 Has not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make
one vessel unto honour and another unto dishonour?
Romans
9:22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power
known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction.
Romans
9:23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels
of mercy, which he had afore prepared
unto glory,
Romans
9:24 Even us, whom he has called, not of the Jews only, but also of
the Gentiles?
Romans
9:25 As he saith also in Osee.(Hosea),
I will call them my people, which were not my people, and her beloved,
which was not beloved.
Romans
9:26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said
unto them, You are not my people; there shall they be called the children
of the living God.
Romans
9:27 Esaias.(Isaiah)
also cries concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel
be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved.
Romans
9:28 For he will finish the work.(original
is 'word', 'discourse', 'what is declared').and
cut it short in.(original
just as easily can mean, 'by', or 'with').righteousness.
Because a short work.('word',
etc.).will the Lord make upon
the earth.
Romans
9:29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left
us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.
Romans
9:30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not
after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness
which is of faith.
Romans
9:31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath
not attained to the law of righteousness.
Romans
9:32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were
by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
Romans
9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock
of offence and whosoever
believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
