8. τὸ ῥῆμα τῆς πίστεως = the word in which faith, as the principle of righteousness, expresses itself. The actual ῥῆμα is Κύριος Ἰησοῦς: it is the expression of a faith which believes with the whole heart that GOD raised Him from death. The resurrection is the proof of the Lordship. This faith and confession is the demand of the Gospel righteousness. For the subj. gen. with ῥῆμα cf. Act 26:25. Other explanations are—the message which has faith for its subject, cf. Joh 6:68; Act 5:20 (S. H., Giff.), the message which appeals to faith (Lid.), the Gospel message (Oltramare ap. S. H.).
