Notes

Romans 15:8–9

Through Christ, God enabled Jews and Gentiles to unite and glorify him as the new covenant people of God (see chapters 9–11). The issue of Jewish and Gentile relationships was central to the disagreement in the Roman church (14:1–15:7).

Romans 15:9–12

so that the Gentiles may glorify God for His mercy: Gentiles are now full members of God’s people.
