Romans 9:17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth. Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Romans 2:4,5 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? … endured.

The concept of God's wrath is a recurring theme in Scripture, often associated with His justice and holiness (e.g., Romans 1:18). The idea of making His power known can be linked to the Exodus narrative, where God's power was demonstrated through the plagues in Egypt ( Exodus 9:16). This reflects the broader biblical theme of God using events to reveal His character and authority. bore with great patience God's patience is a significant aspect of His character, as seen in2 Peter 3:9, where it is stated that God is patient, not wanting anyone to perish. This patience is also evident in the Old Testament, where God repeatedly showed forbearance towards Israel despite their rebellion (Nehemiah 9:30). The patience of God serves as an opportunity for repentance and is a testament to His mercy and grace. the vessels of His wrath The term "vessels" is metaphorical, often used in Scripture to describe people or nations as instruments in God's hands (Jeremiah 18:1-6). In this context, "vessels of wrath" refers to those who are objects of God's judgment due to their persistent sin and rebellion. This concept is echoed inProverbs 16:4, where it is stated that the Lord has made everything for its purpose, even the wicked for the day of trouble. prepared for destruction This phrase suggests a divine purpose and plan, aligning with the biblical theme of God's sovereignty over all creation. The idea of being "prepared for destruction" can be seen in the context of divine judgment, as in the case of Pharaoh, whose heart was hardened to display God's power (Exodus 9:12). It also reflects the eschatological reality of final judgment, as described inRevelation 20:11-15, where those who reject God face eternal separation from Him. Persons / Places / Events 1. GodThe sovereign Creator who exercises His will and purpose in the world. In this verse, God is depicted as patient and powerful, demonstrating His wrath and power. 2. Vessels of WrathA metaphorical term used to describe individuals or groups who are subject to God's judgment due to their persistent sinfulness and rejection of His ways. 3.

It is a rhetorical question meant to humble us before God’s sovereignty. •Romans 9:20–21 reminds us, “But who are you, O man, to talk back to God?”. •Job 38:4 echoes, “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?”. The verse asks us to step back, acknowledge God’s ultimate right to act, and trust that His purposes are righteous even when we do not grasp every detail. intending to show His wrathGod does not hide His holiness; He reveals it—including righteous anger against sin. •Romans 1:18 states, “The wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men”. •Nahum 1:2–3 affirms that “The LORD is a jealous and avenging God… the LORD will by no means leave the guilty unpunished”. His wrath is not petty or reactive; it is the settled, just response of a holy God toward persistent rebellion. and make His power knownWrath and power work together to showcase the full spectrum of God’s character. •Exodus 9:16 records God’s word to Pharaoh: “I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power in you”. •Psalm 106:8 says, “He saved them for the sake of His name, to make His power known”. Power displayed in judgment underscores that no force can thwart His will, while also magnifying the glory of His mercy shown elsewhere. bore with great patienceAstonishingly, God’s wrath does not erupt immediately; He endures evil for a season. •Romans 2:4 calls it “the riches of His kindness, tolerance, and patience”. •2 Peter 3:9 assures us He is “patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish”. This patience serves at least two purposes: – It allows time for repentance among the living. – It demonstrates that final judgment comes only after abundant longsuffering. the vessels of His wrath“Vessels” pictures people as crafted objects. Here, they are “of His wrath,” representing those who persist in unbelief and rebellion. •Romans 9:21 speaks of one lump of clay made into “one vessel for honor and another for common use”. •Proverbs 16:4 notes, “The LORD has made everything for His purpose—even the wicked for the day of disaster”. God’s ownership is total; yet human responsibility within that ownership remains undeniable (Romans 9:30–33). prepared for destruction?Destruction points to ultimate judgment—eternal separation from God. •Matthew 25:41 refers to “the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels”. •John 3:36 warns, “Whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him”. The word “prepared” need not suggest God causes unbelief; rather, He ordains that unrepentant unbelief meets a just end. By enduring such vessels for a time, He upholds both justice and patience. summaryRomans 9:22 teaches that God, entirely within His rights as Creator, sometimes allows rebellious humanity to continue so that His righteous anger and unrivaled power can be fully displayed—yet He does so with remarkable patience. This patience serves both to highlight His mercy toward the redeemed (Romans 9:23) and to demonstrate that His judgments are never rash. The verse calls us to humble awe: God’s glory shines in justice as well as in mercy, and every soul is summoned to repentance while His patience still endures. (22-29) These verses supply the concluding section of the vindication. All this scheme of God's dealings, apparently so severe, is really most merciful. To those who really deserved His wrath, He showed longsuffering. While for us who now believe, Gentiles as well as Jews, He had mercy and glory in store. But in both cases the final result was strictly in accordance with prophecy. Hosea had foretold the admission of the Gentiles. Isaiah the exclusion of the greater part of the Jews. (22)What if. . .--The sentence in the original is incomplete. In its full form it would run, "If God willing to show His wrath" . . . (what can man reply?) This latter clause is dropped or lost in the course of the argument. The best and simplest expedient to supply its place is that adopted in the Authorised version, inserting "what" in italics at the beginning: "What if," &c. There is a second suppression later in the sentence. At the end ofRomans 9:23 we should have to insert some such clause as "He reserved His glory for them," in order to make the sentence strictly grammatical. These irregularities are due to the Apostle's habit of dictating, and to the lively flow of his thoughts. Willing.--While His will was (ultimately) to execute His wrath and display His sovereign judicial power, nevertheless He bore with evildoers, and gave them time for repentance. Verses 22-24. - What if (literally, but if, involving an anacoluthon ) God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much long-suffering vessels (not, as in the Authorized Version, the vessels) of wrath fitted to destruction: and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy which he afore prepared unto glory; whom he also called, even us, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles. "And" at the beginning of ver. 23 is omitted in the uncial B, and there is considerable authority of versions and Fathers for rejecting it. Without it the sentence runs better, and its drift becomes more apparent. The purpose expressed in ver. 23 thus comes out distinctly as the grand ultimate Divine purpose, to which the display of wrath and power spoken of in the previous verse is but subsidiary; and this drift becomes the more apparent, if we supply in English, as we may do, "while" before "willing" in ver. 22. Thus the drift would be, "What If God, while willing to exhibit his wrath and manifest his power, endured with much long-suffering vessels of wrath that had become fitted for destruction, in order that he might manifest the riches of his glory," etc. The idea expressed by "endured," etc., seems suggested by Pharaoh's case (see on ver. 17 with regard to the word διετηρήθης in the LXX., which the apostle appears here to retain the idea of, though he varied from it); but it is the Jewish nation of his own day that he has now in view. They were rejected from inheritance of the promises, and under Divine wrath; as he says in another place, "The wrath had come upon them to the uttermost" ( 1 Thessalonians 2:16). But they were still borne with; they were not finally cut off; and what if their present rejection were but subservient to the great purpose of mercy to the true Israel? The thought, hinted here, is carried out in ch. 11, where even the idea is further entertained of Israel itself as a nation, after judgment endured, coming into God's true fold at last, according to the design of God, through ways inscrutable by us, to "have mercy upon all." The forms of expression used in the passage before us are to be noted in support of the view we have taken of St. Paul's general meaning. "The vessels of wrath" are said to be "fitted to destruction" ( κατηρτισμένα εἰς ἀπώλειαν); of the "vessels of mercy" it is said that God "afore prepared" them unto glory. Predestination to salvation is certainly a doctrine of St. Paul, but he nowhere intimates predestination to reprobation. Further, "Non dicit quae προκατήρτισε, sod κατηρτισμένα: praescinditur a causa efficiente: tantum dicitur quales inveniat Deus quibus tram infert" (Bengel). Lastly, it may be observed that, though α} προπητοίμασενεἰς δόξαν carries with it the idea of individual salvation, yet this only comes in as the outcome and ultimate purpose of the calling of nations or races of men. The drift of the preceding argument remains still what it has been stated to be.
