Volume 5 4th Trailhead – 4th Trail

We are now on the fourth and final trail of Romans 10:16.  It is set in the context of faith coming by hearing and hearing the message concerning Christ as written in Romans 10:14-17.

Just as in John 12:38, Romans 10:16 puts on record the fulfilment of the rejection of the message of salvation through the Messiah as foretold in Isaiah 53:1.  As such, it leads back to the trailhead of Isaiah 53:1.

Hence, the substance of Romans 10:16 is:

“Israel rejects the message of salvation through Jesus of Nazareth”.
