Romans 2:9 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 2:9

Tribulation and anguish
These, with the foregoing words, are expressive of the second death, the torments of hell, the worm that never dies, and the fire that is not quenched: which will fall

upon every soul of man that doth evil;
whose course of life and conversation is evil; for "the soul that sins shall die", ( Ezekiel 18:4 Ezekiel 18:20 ) , unless satisfaction is made for his sins by the blood of Christ:

of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
regard being had to what nation they belong.

Romans 2:9 In-Context

7 soothly to them that be by patience of good work, glory, and honour, and uncorruption, to them that seek everlasting life;

8 but to them that be of strife, and that assent not to truth, but believe to wickedness, wrath and indignation,

9 tribulation and anguish, into each soul of man that worketh evil, to the Jew first, and to the Greek [of Jew first and of the Greek];

10 but glory, and honour, and peace, to each man that worketh good thing, to the Jew first, and to the Greek.

11 For acception of persons [that is, to put one before another without desert,] is not with God.
