Christ the Hope of Jews and Gentiles
8For I tell you that Christ cbecame a servant to the circumcised to show God’s truthfulness, in order dto confirm the promises given to the patriarchs, 9and in order ethat the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written,f“Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles,
and sing to your name.”

The Certainty of God’s Promise
13For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater by whom to swear, lhe swore by himself, 14saying, m“Surely I will bless you and multiply you.” 15And thus Abraham, ▼▼Greek he
ohaving patiently waited, obtained the promise. 16For people swear by something greater than themselves, and in all their disputes pan oath is final for confirmation. 17So when God desired to show more convincingly to qthe heirs of the promise rthe unchangeable character of his purpose, she guaranteed it with an oath, 18so that by two unchangeable things, in which tit is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope uset before us.
