God’s Judgment Defended (vv.
1-5)
Since true Jews are Jews of the heart, what advantage has a physical view?
They were entrusted with the oracles of God.
λόγιον: these are the sayings, commandments, statutes of God.
πιστεύω: the word of God was placed in their care.
The faithlessness of men does not nullify the faithfulness of God.
Our unrighteousness serves to show the righteousness of God
Here we see that God’s righteous nature is put on display when he pours his wrath out on sin.
We can see his righteousness in his judgment.
So then, if ungodly behavior results in God’s righteousness being displayed, why are we judged for engaging in it?
Why not behave in an ungodly fashion even more?
Paul classifies this as outrageous blasphemy.
No One is Righteous (vv.
9-20)
All men are under sin
Have you ever heard anyone jokingly say, does all mean all?
The proper answer, hermeneutically speaking, is that all doesn’t always mean all.
No one is righteous
No one understands
No one is seeking God
No one does good - not even one
They have become worthless
ἀχρειόω: to become a liability to society because of moral depravity, become depraved, worthless.
Everyone is subject to God’s law
Even though Gentiles were not entrusted with the law, they were still subject to the law because the works of the law are written on the human heart.
The Law cannot justify
