Isaiah 66:20
Romans 11:13
13I am speaking to you Gentiles. Because I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I am glorifying my ministryActs 9:15; 13:2; 22:21; Rom 15:16; Gal 1:16; Eph 3:8; 1Tim 2:7; 2Tim 1:11Galatians 2:7-9
7In fact, they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel for the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been entrusted with the gospel for the circumcised.Acts 13:46; Rom 1:5; 11:13; 1Thes 2:4; 1Tim 2:7; 2Tim 1:11 8For the one who worked through Peter by making him an apostle to the circumcised also worked through me by sending me to the Gentiles.Acts 9:15; 13:2; 22:21; 26:17-18; 1Cor 15:10; Gal 1:16; 3:5; Col 1:29 9So when James, Cephas, ▼▼I.e. Peter
and John (who were reputed to be leaders) ▼▼Lit. pillars
recognized the grace that had been given me, they gave Barnabas and me the right hand of fellowship, agreeing that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.Matt 16:18; Rom 1:5; 15:15; 1Cor 15:10; Eph 2:20; 3:8; Rev 21:14 Philippians 2:17
17Yet even if I am being poured out like an offering as part of the sacrifice and service I offer ▼▼The Gk. lacks I offer
for your faith, I rejoice, and I share my joy with all of you.Rom 15:16; 2Cor 7:4; Col 1:24; 2Tim 4:6 1 Timothy 2:7
7For this reason I was appointed to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth. (I am telling you the truth. ▼▼Other mss. read the truth in Christ
I am not lying.)Rom 9:1; 11:13; 15:16; Gal 1:16; Eph 3:7-8; 2Tim 1:11 2 Timothy 1:11
11For the sake of this gospel ▼▼Lit. For which
I was appointed to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. ▼▼Other mss. lack of the Gentiles
