Romani 2:6 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 2:6

Who will render to every man according to his deeds.
] God will be the Judge, who is righteous, holy, just, and true; every man in particular will be judged; as the judgment will be general to all, it will be special to everyone, and will proceed according to their works; for God will render to wicked men according to the demerit of their sins, the just recompense of reward, eternal damnation; and to good men eternal life, not according to the merit of their good works, which have none in them, but according to the nature of them; such who believe in Christ, and perform good works from a principle of grace, shall receive the reward of the inheritance, which is a reward of grace, and not of debt. In other words, God will render to evil men according to the true desert of their evil deeds; and of his own free grace will render to good men, whom he has made so by his grace, what is suitable and agreeable to those good works, which, by the assistance of his grace, they have been enabled to perform.

Romani 2:6 In-Context

4 Ovvero, sprezzi tu le ricchezze della sua benignità, e della sua pazienza, e lentezza ad adirarsi; non conoscendo che la benignità di Dio ti trae a ravvedimento?
5 Là dove tu, per la tua durezza, e cuore che non sa ravvedersi, ti ammassi a guisa di tesoro ira, nel giorno dell’ira, e della manifestazione del giusto giudicio di Dio.
6 Il quale renderà a ciascuno secondo le sue opere;
7 cioè: la vita eterna a coloro che, con perseveranza in buone opere, procaccian gloria, onore, ed immortalità.
8 Ma a coloro che son contenziosi, e non ubbidiscono alla verità, anzi ubbidiscono all’ingiustizia, soprastà indegnazione ed ira.
