Romans 10:7 Meaning and Commentary

(See Gill on Romans 10:6).

Romans 10:7 In-Context

5 For Moses writes that the law’s way of making a person right with God requires obedience to all of its commands.

6 But faith’s way of getting right with God says, “Don’t say in your heart, ‘Who will go up to heaven?’ (to bring Christ down to earth).

7 And don’t say, ‘Who will go down to the place of the dead?’ (to bring Christ back to life again).”

8 In fact, it says, “The message is very close at hand; it is on your lips and in your heart.” And that message is the very message about faith that we preach:

9 If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
