Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Romans 15:19

Signs and wonders, standard biblical phraseology for miracles, accredited the messenger of God and validated the message that he proclaimed (Acts 2:22; Acts 5:12). [Note: See Ken L. Sarles, "An Appraisal of the Signs and Wonders Movement," Bibliotheca Sacra 145:577 (January-March 1988):57-82.] The Holy Spirit enabled people to see the connection between the miracle and the message and, therefore, to believe the gospel and experience salvation.Paul’s arena of ministry when he wrote this epistle... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:1-33

Jew and Gentile alike the Object of God’s Love. The Apostle’s Plans1-13. The subject of Romans 14 is continued. ’Strength’ should be displayed in helping the ’weak’ after Christ’s example (Romans 15:1-4). Let both sections be united in God’s praise, welcoming one another as Christ welcomed them (Romans 15:5-7). As the divergence of views originated in the difference between Jew and Gentile, let both remember that Christ became a Jew for the salvation of both (Romans 15:8-13).Paraphrase. ’(1)... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Romans 15:19

(19) Through mighty signs and wonders.—Literally, through the might of signs and wonders—i.e., through those extraordinary powers which found their expression in signs and wonders. “Signs and wonders” is the phrase regularly used throughout the New Testament for the Christian miracles: so frequently in the Gospels. (Comp. also 2 Corinthians 12:12; 2 Thessalonians 2:9; Hebrews 11:4.) The two words are very similar in meaning. They denote the same acts, but they connote different aspects in which... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Romans 15:1-33

Romans 15:1 'There's a text wants no candle to show't; it shines by its own light It's plain enough you get into the wrong road in this life if you run after this and that only for the sake o' making things easy and pleasant to yourself. A pig may poke his nose into the trough, and think o' nothing outside it; but if you've got a man's heart and soul in you, you can't be easy a-making your own bed an' leaving the rest to lie on the stones. Nay, I'll never slip my neck out of the yoke, an' leave... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Romans 15:1-33

CHAPTER 15 1. The Example of Christ. (Romans 15:1-7 .) 2. The Ministry of Christ. (Romans 15:8-13 .) 3. Paul’s Personal Ministry. (Romans 15:14-33 .) Romans 15:1-7 An additional motive is brought in why the strong should bear the infirmities of the weak and not please themselves. It is Christ. He did not please Himself, but bore in great meekness and patience the reproaches with which men reproached God, and these reproaches fell on Christ Himself. It was the reproach of God He bore in... read more

John Calvin

Geneva Study Bible - Romans 15:19

15:19 Through {o} mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.(o) In the first place this word "mighty" signifies the force and working of the wonders in piercing men’s minds: and in the latter, it signifies God’s mighty power which was the worker of those wonders. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:1-33

The subject of Romans 14:1-23 continues through verse 7 of Romans 15:1-33. We have seen first the Lord's authority in regard to men's consciences, then love toward our brethren a reason for considering their consciences. Now a third reason completes the treatment of the subject - a reason of greatest importance. This care and consideration is for the sake of the glory of God (vv. 5 & 6). When we think of our brethren, do we think seriously and honestly of God's glory? This is the highest,... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Romans 15:1-33

PRACTICAL APPLICATION In chapter 6 Paul revealed the secret of experimental sanctification as the yielding of one’s self unto God, in which case sin would not have dominion over one In chapter 8 he showed the divine process of sanctification as the work of the Holy Spirit in the believer. Having finished the doctrinal part of his epistle, he returns to what he then said (chap. 6), and exhorts us to yield because of the “mercies of God” of which he had been speaking throughout (Romans 12:1-2... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Romans 15:1-33

Brotherly Kindness Romans 15:0 "We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak." If we were under the impression that Christianity is all metaphysics we have been under an impression that is false. There is nothing so practical, so work-a-day-like, as Christianity. It goes into the marketplace and into the family, and into all the holes and corners of life, and sees that everything is done according to the spirit of the eternal sanctuary. Orthodoxy does not look in one... read more
