This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





When the Gentiles heard this they were glad; there can be no true rest or peace in any to whom Christ is not manifested; the apostle telling us, that we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, Rom_5:1; and the kingdom of God is peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.



Glorified the word of the Lord; they magnified the goodness of God, which appeared in the gospel unto them.



As many as were ordained to eternal life, believed; God, who ordered the end, ordereth the means, and gives them opportunities to hear the word, and by it graciously worketh faith in them whom he hath appointed to eternal life; without which faith, purging the heart, there is no hope of life eternal.
