Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Romans 8:31-39

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? (32) He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? (33) Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. (34) Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. (35) Who shall separate us from the love... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Romans 8:39

REFLECTIONS Reader! can you, can I, find strength of faith, under the assurance of being justified in the blood and righteousness of Jesus Christ, to rest in him for everlasting life; then may we take part in the precious truth of the Apostle's words, for there is no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. And, blessed be God for all the high privileges of a justified state before God. Led by the Spirit of God, we are the sons of God.... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Romans 8:39

So powerful and efficacious, so certain and unchangeable is the love of God, which conducts us to the kingdom of bliss, that no creature can separate us from it, either by making us cease to love him, or by frustrating our love of its effect, viz. life everlasting. (Estius) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Romans 8:32-39

32-39 All things whatever, in heaven and earth, are not so great a display of God's free love, as the gift of his coequal Son to be the atonement on the cross for the sin of man; and all the rest follows upon union with him, and interest in him. All things, all which can be the causes or means of any real good to the faithful Christian. He that has prepared a crown and a kingdom for us, will give us what we need in the way to it. Men may justify themselves, though the accusations are in full... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Romans 8:1-99

Romans 8 Bur now DOES this deliverance work? How is it accomplished? We find an answer to these questions when we commence to read chapter 8. At the end of chapter 7 the law of sin and death proved itself far more powerful than the law of the renewed mind. In the opening of chapter 8 the law of the Spirit, who is now given to the believer, proves itself far more powerful than the law of sin and death. The Apostle can exultingly say, It has “made me free.” Not only have we life in Christ Jesus... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Romans 8:18-39

II. Life in the Spirit in connection with nature as the Resurrection-life, and the Spirit as security of gloryRomans 8:18-39A. The present and subjective certainty of future glory, or the glorification of the body and of nature by the spirit (Romans 8:18-27)18For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared [insignificant in comparison] with the glory which shall be revealed in us [εἰς ήμᾶς].49 19For the earnest [patient] expectation of the creature... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Romans 8:37

Romans MORE THAN CONQUERORS Rom_8:37 . In order to understand and feel the full force of this triumphant saying of the Apostle, we must observe that it is a negative answer to the preceding questions, ‘Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?’ A heterogeneous mass the Apostle here brigades together as an antagonistic army. They are alike in nothing except that they are all evils. There is no... read more

Alexander MacLaren

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Romans 8:38-39

Romans LOVE’S TRIUMPH Rom_8:38 - Rom_8:39 . These rapturous words are the climax of the Apostle’s long demonstration that the Gospel is the revelation of ‘the righteousness of God from faith to faith,’ and is thereby ‘the power of God unto salvation.’ What a contrast there is between the beginning and the end of his argument! It started with sombre, sad words about man’s sinfulness and aversion from the knowledge of God. It closes with this sunny outburst of triumph; like some stream rising... read more
