Romans 10:11-12 - Exposition

For the Scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed (see above, on Romans 9:33 ). For there is no difference (rather, distinction ) between the Jew and the Greek: for the same is Lord of all, being rich unto all that call upon him. Here, in Romans 10:12 , the apostle comments on the text from Isaiah, so as to show the universality of its application (see previous note). It is (he would say) in itself applicable to Jew and Gentile alike, and it must needs be so, since the one God is the same to all that call upon him, even as the Prophet Joel also testified. The thought thus expressed was one deeply fixed in St. Paul's mind. He elsewhere speaks Of the very unity of God as implying of necessity that he is the same alike to Jews and Gentiles (see above, on Romans 3:29 ).
