Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.

For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
Nm 23:19 - God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Rim 9:6 - Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
2Tim 2:13 - If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
Verš 4
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
Jn 3:33 - He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
Ž 116:11 - I said in my haste, All men are liars.
Ž 51:4 - Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
Verš 9
What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
Gal 3:22 - But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
Verš 10
As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Ž 14:3 - They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Ž 53:3 - Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Verš 20
Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
Gal 2:16 - Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Flp 3:9 - And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Iz 53:5 - But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Verš 25
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
2Kor 5:19 - To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

Rim 8:3 - For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
Gal 2:16 - Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Heb 7:25 - Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Rim 3,1-8 - Aby z toho, čo v predchádzajúcej kapitole povedal, nemohli Židia namietať, že ich Pavol stavia na roveň pohanom, tu poukazuje na to, že Židom ostávajú ich výsady, najmä Božie slová a mesiášske prisľúbenia (vv. 1–2). Neverou jednotlivcov sa prisľúbenia nerušia, ale skôr sa jasnejšie ukazuje Božia vernosť a spravodlivosť (vv. 3–4). No z toho, že ich nevera niekedy prispieva k Božej sláve, lebo sa vyzdvihuje Božia spravodlivosť a svätosť, nevyplýva, že by ich Boh nemal trestať, ani že by sa mohlo robiť zlo, aby z toho vyšlo dobro (vv. 5–8).
Rim 3,4 - Porov. Ž 116, 11; 51, 6.
Rim 3,9-20 - Prednosti, ktoré Zákon dáva Židom, sú len vonkajšie, ale samy osebe nikoho neočisťujú od hriechu a nerobia spravodlivým. Všetci ľudia, Židia i pohania, sú pred Bohom hriešni. Pavol to dokazuje výrokmi z rozličných kníh Písma: Ž 14, 2 n. (vv. 10–12); 5, 10; 140, 4 (v.13); 10, 7 (v. 14); Iz 59, 7 n. (vv. 15–17); Ž 36, 2 (v.18).
Rim 3,20 - Mojžišov zákon jasne vymedzil, čo neslobodno robiť, ale nedával človeku silu, aby to mohol aj uskutočniť. Ospravedlnenie spočíva v účasti na Božom živote a je Božím darom. Stav bez hriechu môže človeka naň pripraviť, no či bude človek ospravedlnený, závisí od slobodnej Božej vôle. – Správnejšie by bolo "ospravodlivený" a "ospravodlivenie", lebo človek sa stáva "spravodlivým", a nie "spravedlným".
Rim 3,21 - "Ospravedlnenie" znamená odpustenie hriechov a získanie milosti. Ním sa človek stáva účastným na Božej prirodzenosti. Tento dar ospravedlnenia zaslúžil nám Kristus a Boh ho každému zdarma ponúka.
Rim 3,25 - "Prostriedok zmierenia", gr. hilastérion. Tak sa nazývalo veko archy zmluvy, ktoré sa kropilo krvou obetných zvierat v deň Zmluvy. Kristova krv ako osobná obeta znamená pre nás vykúpenie, lebo v skutočnosti ona nás zbavuje hriechov.
Rim 3,27-28 - Židia nemajú dôvod vystatovať sa, lebo potrebujú ospravedlnenie rovnako ako pohania. Zdrojom ospravedlnenia je viera v Krista, a nie zachovávanie predpisov Starého zákona.
