Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:22-33

His Aim To Visit Rome After He Has Ministered To Jewish Believers In Taking The Contributions Of The Gentile Churches To The Church In Jerusalem (15:22-33). Paul now confirms the unity of Jewish and Gentile Christians by describing his coming ministry to the church in Jerusalem in providing them with a means of sustenance, as provided by Gentile Christians, at a time of great famine. Those who had been converted under his ministry saw the church as one whole as they sought to pay their debt to... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:24

‘Whenever I go to Spain (for I hope to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way there by you, if first in some measure I shall have been satisfied with your company) ’ In a typically unfinished Pauline sentence, for he regularly changes his direction when writing on a topic, Paul explains that his next aim is to take the Gospel to Spain, and explains that at that stage he intends to visit Rome, and indeed is hopeful of their assistance in different ways in speeding him on his way once... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 15:22-29

Romans 15:22-Joel : . The Prospect of Coming to Rome. Romans 15:22-Jeremiah : . This long task “ repeatedly detained” the writer; “ but now” that he has evangelised the Eastern Provinces, he may realise “ the yearning” toward Rome he had cherished “ for a good many years”—“ as,” he adds, “ I may be taking my way to Spain.” Being a pioneer missionary, Paul cannot make Rome, where Christ has long been named, his objective: “ I hope to visit you as I travel through, and by you to be sent... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 15:24

Here he sets down the time when he would visit them, i.e. when he took his journey into Spain. He saith, he trusted he should see them then; he was not assured of it, he had no revelation from God concerning it, he could make no absolute promise. See Romans 15:28. And to be brought on my way thitherward by you; i.e. by some of you; this he did promise himself from them, and indeed it was usually done by the churches he visited; see Acts 17:15; not that he affected any train or pomp, but it was... read more

CRITICAL NOTESRomans 15:23. Place in these parts.—κλίμασι, a geographical term of the ancients. Paul wished to visit Rome as the centre of the heathen world.

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Romans 15:1-33

Shall we turn to the fifteenth chapter of Paul's epistle to the Romans.In the fourteenth chapter Paul was dealing with the subject of walking in love within the body of Christ. Recognizing that we have differences of feelings, convictions, or opinions on the different issues involving the Christian walk. Paul said, "Those that are strong in the faith can eat meat, those who are weak in the faith have convictions against eating meat so they eat vegetables." But we need to recognize that people... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Romans 15:1-33

Romans 15:4 . Whatsoever things were written afore-time, by Moses and the prophets concerning Christ, and the calling of the gentiles, were written in order to afford us the greatest comfort, by demonstrating the care of providence over the church in the accomplishment of the promises. John 10:16. St. Paul brings in four quotations of those promises, in Romans 15:9-12; and of course the believing jews were evidently too far transported with zeal in their attempts to force the Hebrew yoke on... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Romans 15:22-24

Romans 15:22-24For which cause I have been much hindered from coming to you. Paul’s desire to visit the Roman ChurchThe apostle had mentioned in the beginning of his letter this desire which he had long cherished (Romans 1:9-13). He here repeats it. The cause which had frustrated its accomplishment was the principle mentioned in Romans 15:20-21. New openings had presented themselves in succession, for a long period, “in these parts”--Macedonia, Achaia, and the surrounding districts, and while... read more
