Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Romans 15:9

Here he proves the second part, that Christ hath also received the Gentiles. There is a plain ellipsis in the words; this is understood, that there were promises made of or to the Gentiles, and Christ came to confirm them also. The sum of these promises was this, that the Gentiles should glorify God for his mercy.

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.

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
