I am speaking to you Gentiles The Apostle Paul directly addresses the Gentile believers in Rome, emphasizing the inclusivity of the Gospel. The Greek word for "Gentiles" is "ethnos," which refers to nations or peoples distinct from the Jewish nation. Historically, the Gentiles were often seen as outsiders to God's covenant with Israel. However, Paul's mission was to bring the message of Christ to all nations, fulfilling the promise that through Abraham's seed, all nations would be blessed (Genesis 22:18). This phrase underscores the breaking down of barriers between Jew and Gentile, a theme central to Paul's ministry. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles I magnify my ministry (13) For I speak to you Gentiles.--The connecting particles in this verse must be altered according to an amended reading. "For" should be omitted, a full stop placed after "Gentiles," and "then" inserted after "inasmuch." "I speak to you Gentiles"--spoken with something of a pause. "Inasmuch then" (or, in so far then) "as I am the Apostle of the Gentiles, I seek to do honour to my office. But not without an arriere-pensee. My motive is at least partly to win over my own countrymen." Verses 13, 14. - But (δὲ is better supported than γὰρ) I speak to you the Gentiles. Inasmuch (or, so far) then (οϋν, which is not in the Textus Receptus, being read, and so connecting this clause with what follows) as I am an apostle of the Gentiles, I glorify my ministry, if by any means I may provoke to jealousy (in the Authorized Version, emulation, but it is the same word as in ver. 11) my flesh (i.e. my kindred), and may save some of them. To the Gentiles, whom he now directly addresses, he thus intimates that, though he is especially their apostle, yet beyond them he has his own countrymen still in view, whose conversion, through theirs, he has ever close to his heart. I glorify (δοξάζω) my ministry - i.e, my apostleship to the Gentiles - may mean that I add glory to it, if I may, through it, attain that further purpose.Parallel Commentaries ...
