The Pulpit Commentary - Romans 15:21-24

But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand ( Isaiah 52:15 , as in the LXX . The passage is Messianic; but St. Paul need be understood to be quoting it as predictive or directive of the rule he follows. Enough if it expresses his meaning well). For which cause also I have been much hindered (or, was for the most part, or many times hindered ) from coming to you. The hindrance had been, mainly at least, as is... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Romans 15:24

Whensoever I take my journey into Spain - Ancient Spain comprehended the modern kingdoms of Spain and Portugal, or the whole of the Spanish peninsula. It was then subject to the Romans. It is remarkable, even here, that the apostle does not say that his principal object was to visit the church at Rome, much as he desired that, but only to “take it in his way” in the fulfillment of his higher purpose to preach the gospel in regions where Christ was not named. Whether he ever fulfilled his... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Romans 15:23-24

Romans 15:23-24. But now, having no more place in these parts Where Christ has now been preached in every city; and having a great desire On various accounts; to come to you I will attempt to put it in execution. Whensoever At whatever time; I take my journey into Spain Greek, εαν πορευομαι εις την Σπανιαν , if I go into Spain; I will come to you Namely, if God shall so permit. But this zealous design, it seems, was hindered by his imprisonment. It appears probable, from hence,... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Romans 15:14-33

15:14-16:27 PLANS, GREETINGS AND FAREWELLMission to Gentiles and Jews (15:14-33)Paul has not written to the Roman believers because he doubts their ability to understand or teach the truth. He has written because he wants to give them added assurance in the principles of the gospel that they have already received. This is because, as apostle to the Gentiles, he wishes that the work among the Gentiles everywhere, including Rome, be acceptable to God (14-16). Paul has good reason to be pleased as... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Romans 15:24

Whensoever I go unto Spain (for I hope to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first in some measure I shall have been satisfied by your company).Did Paul ever go to Spain? None can say, actually, that he did; although it is allowed that he certainly might have done so. Hodge wrote:Whether Paul ever accomplished his purpose of rising Spain, is a matter of doubt. There is no historical record of his having done so, either in the New Testament, or in the early... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Romans 15:24

Romans 15:24. Into Spain— It hence appears probable, considering the principle by which St. Paul chose to govern himself, of not building on another man's foundation, that no Apostle had as yet planted any church in Spain; which very ill agrees with the "Legend of St. James;" for, according to that, he had now been fifteen years in Spain, and had erected several bishopricks there. See Geddes's Miscell. vol. 2: p. 221. read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Romans 15:24

24. whensoever I take my journey into Spain—Whether this purpose was ever accomplished has been much disputed, as no record of it nor allusion to it anywhere occurs. Those who think our apostle was never at large after his first imprisonment at Rome will of course hold that it never was; while those who are persuaded, as we are, that he underwent a second imprisonment, prior to which he was at large for a considerable time after his first, incline naturally to the other opinion. I will come to... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Romans 15:14-27

VII. CONCLUSION 15:14-16:27The conclusion of the epistle corresponds to its introduction (Romans 1:1-17; cf. Romans 15:14 and Romans 1:8; Romans 15:15-21 and Romans 1:3; Romans 1:13; Romans 15:22 and Romans 1:13 a; Romans 15:27 and Romans 1:14; Romans 15:29 and Romans 1:11-12; and Romans 15:30-32 and Romans 1:9-10). Both sections deal with matters of personal interest to Paul and frame his exposition of the righteousness of God (cf. 1 Corinthians 1:1-9; 1 Corinthians 16:5-24). However in both... read more
