[Question] 1. In Romans 3:1-2, how did Paul answer the question, “What advantage then has the Jew, or what is the profit of circumcision?” (“Much in every way! Chiefly because to them were committed the oracles of God”), and what does it mean to be “committed” with the word of God?
1. Unlike the words of negative meaning, the benefit of the Jew is clearly affirmed by the word, “Much in every way!”
Romans 3:1-2 seems like a simple rhetorical question, but it is a very important question that the Apostle Paul throws right after accusing the sins of the Gentiles and the Jews in order in chapters 1 and 2. The answer to this question shows how God’s history of salvation entered this earth through Israel, and also how it came to be delivered to all humanity.
