Romans 2:19
Blind, in darkness, ignorant, babes - These were the titles which the Jews generally gave the gentiles.
The Jews Guilty as the Gentiles
17 Indeed ayou are called a Jew, and brest on the law, cand make your boast in God,
18 and aknow His will, and bapprove the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,
19 and aare confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,
20 an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, ahaving the form of knowledge and truth in the law.
21 aYou, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that a man should not steal, do you steal?
22 You who say, “Do not commit adultery,” do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, ado you rob temples?
23 You who amake your boast in the law, do you dishonor God through breaking the law?
24 For a“the name of God is bblasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” as it is written.
Circumcision of No Avail
25 aFor circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
