1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. Compare verse7 commentaries
2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. Compare verse10 commentaries
3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God. Compare verse8 commentaries
5 For Moses describes the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which does those things shall live by them. Compare verse9 commentaries
6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaks on this wise, Say not in your heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) Compare verse4 commentaries
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) Compare verse5 commentaries
8 But what said it? The word is near you, even in your mouth, and in your heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; Compare verse8 commentaries
9 That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. Compare verse5 commentaries
10 For with the heart man believes to righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made to salvation. Compare verse15 commentaries
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? Compare verse10 commentaries
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! Compare verse9 commentaries
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias said, Lord, who has believed our report? Compare verse5 commentaries
18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes truly, their sound went into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world. Compare verse13 commentaries
19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses said, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you. Compare verse8 commentaries
20 But Esaias is very bold, and said, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest to them that asked not after me. Compare verse5 commentaries
21 But to Israel he said, All day long I have stretched forth my hands to a disobedient and gainsaying people. Compare verse10 commentaries
