Psalms 78:2

Lamentations 3:14

     14. (Jer 20:7).

      their song— (Ps 69:12). Jeremiah herein was a type of Messiah. "All my people" (Joh 1:11).

Romans 2:16

     16. In the day, &c.—Here the unfinished statement of Ro 2:12 is resumed and closed.

      shall judge the secrets of men—here specially referring to the unfathomed depths of hypocrisy in the self-righteous whom the apostle had to deal with. (See Ec 12:14; 1Co 4:5).

      according to my gospel—to my teaching as a preacher of the Gospel.

Romans 2:27

     25-29. For circumcision—that is, One's being within the covenant of which circumcision was the outward sign and seal.

      verily profiteth, if thou keep the law—if the inward reality correspond to the outward sign.

      but if, &c.—that is, "Otherwise, thou art no better than the uncircumcised heathen."
