Romans 10:7 Meaning and Commentary

(See Gill on Romans 10:6).

Romans 10:7 In-Context

5 Moses says that he whose actions conform to the righteousness required by the Law shall live by that righteousness.

6 But the righteousness which is based on faith speaks in a different tone. "Say not in your heart," it declares, "`Who shall ascend to Heaven?'" --that is, to bring Christ down;

7 "nor `Who shall go down into the abyss?'" --that is, to bring Christ up again from the grave.

8 But what does it say? "The Message is close to you, in your mouth and in your heart;" that is, the Message which we are publishing about the faith--

9 that if with your mouth you confess Jesus as Lord and in your heart believe that God brought Him back to life, you shall be saved.
