Romans 15:10
Again, it says: “Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people.”
BSB
ASV
And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.
KJV
And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.
The second authority contains the coalescence of gentiles and Jews. Hence, he says: and again he says: O gentiles, once alienated from the commonwealth of Israel (Eph 2:12); rejoice, you gentiles, with his people, i.e., adopt a common joy together with the Jews, who were …
And again he saith,.... God or Christ, in Deu 32:43; rejoice ye Gentiles with his people; which from the Hebrew text are by some rendered, "rejoice his people O ye Gentiles"; to which agree the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan, who render it, "praise O ye nations his people"; or as some copies of the former, "the judgment of his people"; and the latter adds, the house of Israel. The note of R. Sol.
This is quoted from that song of Moses, Deut. xxxii. Observe, Those who were incorporated among his people are said to rejoice with his people. No greater joy can come to any people than the coming of the gospel among them in power.
Those that were Lo-ammi--not a people, were Lo-ruhama--not obtaining mercy, Hos. i. The greatest mercy of God to any people is the receiving of them into covenant with himself: and it is good to take notice of God's mercy in receiving us. [2.] They shall have a heart for praise.
And again ... - ; Deu 32:43. In this place the “nations” or Gentiles are called on to rejoice with the Jews, for the interposition of God in their behalf. The design of the quotation is to show that the Old Testament speaks of the Gentiles as called on to celebrate the praises of God; of course, the apostle infers that they are to be introduced to the same privileges as his people.
Now--"For" is the true reading: the apostle is merely assigning an additional motive to Christian forbearance.
And again-- (De 32:43, though there is some difficulty in the Hebrew).
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
