This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Rom 2:6. Ὃς ἀποδώσει ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα ἀυτο͂υ). So the LXX. expressly in Pro 24:12, and Ps. 62:13, συ ἀποδώσεις κτλ. This saying, and especially that below, Rom 2:11, is often quoted.-ἀποδώσει, will render) not only will give, but will repay. [See that you make this the rule of your plans.-V. g.]-κατὰ, according to) Paul describes those, who shall obtain either life or death, generally, and according to the condition [or else in a way suited to the apprehension] of those, with whom he is concerned in this place, cutting them off still from all special ground of obtaining or losing salvation. Therefore, this passage is of no advantage to the argument for the merit of good works.
