Calvin's on Romans 3:16

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

16. Very striking is the sentence that is added from Isaiah, Ruin and misery are in all their ways; (102) for it is a representation of ferociousness above measure barbarous, which produces solitude and waste by destroying every thing wherever it prevails: it is the same as the description which Pliny gives of Domitian. (102) Romans 3:15 are taken from Isaiah 59:7 . Both the Hebrew and the Septuagint are alike, but Paul has abbreviated them, and changed two words in the Greek version, having put οξει᾿ for ταχινοι, and ἔγνωσαν for ὀίδασι, and has followed that version in leaving out “innocent” before “blood.” — Ed. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-17" class="com-number"
