Christ's Ministry Unites Jews and Gentiles
Romans 15:7-13
7
So welcome each other, just as the Messiah has welcomed you into God’s glory.
8
For I say that the Messiah became a servant of the Jewish people in order to show God’s truthfulness by making good his promises to the Patriarchs,
9
and in order to show his mercy by causing the Gentiles to glorify God — as it is written in the Tanakh,
“Because of this I will acknowledge you among the Gentiles
and sing praise to your name.”
10
And again it says,
“Gentiles, rejoice with his people.”
11
And again,
“Praise Adonai, all Gentiles!
Let all peoples praise him!”
12
And again, Yesha‘yahu says,
“The root of Yishai will come,
he who arises to rule Gentiles;
Gentiles will put their hope in him.”
13
May God, the source of hope, fill you completely with joy and shalom as you continue trusting, so that by the power of the Ruach HaKodesh you may overflow with hope.
