Romains 10:13 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 10:13

For whosoever shall call upon the name the Lord
This testimony is taken out of ( Joel 2:32 ) and is brought to prove the truth of what the apostle had just suggested, that all that call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, will find him rich and plenteous in mercy, and ready to dispense his grace and salvation to them: such

shall be saved;
be they who they will, whether Jews or Gentiles; not with a temporal salvation only, but with a spiritual and eternal one; for the words of the prophet refer to Gospel times, as the context shows, and is cited and applied thereunto by the Apostle Peter, ( Acts 2:16-21 ) ; besides, the deliverance and salvation Joel speaks of, is of a "remnant whom the Lord shall call", ( Joel 2:32 ) ; and designs the remnant according to the election of grace, whether among Jews or Gentiles, whom God calls by his efficacious grace; between which call and eternal glory, there is a certain and inseparable connection.

Romains 10:13 In-Context

11 En effet, l'Écriture dit: Quiconque croit en lui, ne sera point confus.
12 Car il n'y a point de distinction entre le Juif et le Grec, parce que tous ont un même Seigneur, qui est riche pour tous ceux qui l'invoquent.
13 Car quiconque invoquera le nom du Seigneur, sera sauvé.
14 Comment donc invoqueront-ils celui auquel ils n'ont point cru? Et comment croiront-ils en celui dont ils n'ont pas entendu parler? Et comment en entendront-ils parler, s'il n'y a pas quelqu'un qui prêche?
15 Et comment prêchera-t-on, si l'on n'est pas envoyé? selon ce qui est écrit: Qu'ils sont beaux les pieds de ceux qui annoncent la paix, de ceux qui annoncent de bonnes choses!
