Romans 15:26 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 15:26

24 whenever I journey to Spain,¹ I shall come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, ^aand to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may ^benjoy your company for a while.

25 But now ^aI am going to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

26 For ^ait pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.

27 It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors. For ^aif the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, ^btheir duty is also to minister to them in material things.

28 Therefore, when I have performed this and have sealed to them ^athis fruit, I shall go by way of you to Spain.

29 ^aBut I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing¹ of the gospel of Christ.

30 Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and ^athrough the love of the Spirit, ^bthat you strive together with me in prayers to God for me,

31 ^athat I may be delivered from those in Judea who¹ do not believe, and that ^bmy service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints,

32 ^athat I may come to you with joy ^bby the will of God, and may ^cbe refreshed together with you.

33 Now ^athe God of peace be with you all. Amen.
