Romans 4:22 Meaning and Commentary

Romans 4:22

And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
] Not because his faith was strong, and he had a full assurance of it, but because it was right, resting on the promise of God, and relying upon his power and faithfulness to perform it; for though the righteousness of faith is not imputed to any sort of believers, not to mere nominal ones, yet to all such as have true faith, though it may be but weak; for faith, as to nature, kind, and object, though not as to degree, is the same in all true believers, and the same righteousness is imputed to one as to another.

Romans 4:22 In-Context

20 Also in the promise of God he doubted not with untrust; but he was comforted in belief, giving glory to God,

21 witting most fully that whatever things God hath promised, he is mighty also to do.

22 Therefore it was areckoned [reckoned] to him to rightwiseness.

23 And it is not written only for him, that it was areckoned [reckoned] to him to rightwiseness,

24 but also for us, to whom it shall be areckoned [reckoned], that believe in him that raised our Lord Jesus Christ from death [from dead].
