Verses 1-7
A. Salutation 1:1-7
The salutation, which is the longest salutation in Paul’s epistles, identifies the writer (Romans 1:1), introduces the subject of the letter (Romans 1:2-5), and greets the original readers (Romans 1:6-7). This first sentence (Romans 1:1-7) implicitly sets forth the most fundamental facts of Christianity. In particular, it shows that the main facts of the gospel fulfill Old Testament predictions.
