Romans Chapter 1 Vs. 2

Greeting

(Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) Rom 1:2




promised afore by... In the law, the prophets, and the psalms (Luke 24:44; Acts 3:21; Heb. 1:1).

The phrase Holy Scriptures refers obviously to the Old Testament and occurs only here in the New Testament (2Tim. 3:15 uses different Gr. words for “holy” and “Scriptures”). Paul did not quote any prophets where the gospel was promised, but Philip’s use of Isa. 53:7-8 with the Ethiopian eunuch is a good example (Acts 8:30-35; cf. Luke 24:25-27, 24:45-47).
