The Value of Jewish Privilege
Romans 3:1-8
1
Then what advantage has the Jew? What is the value of being circumcised?
2
Much in every way! In the first place, the Jews were entrusted with the very words of God.
3
If some of them were unfaithful, so what? Does their faithlessness cancel God’s faithfulness?
4
Heaven forbid! God would be true even if everyone were a liar! — as the Tanakh says,
“so that you, God, may be proved right in your words
and win the verdict when you are put on trial.”
5
Now if our unrighteousness highlights God’s righteousness, what should we say? That God is unrighteous to inflict his anger on us? (I am speaking here the way people commonly do.)
6
Heaven forbid! Else, how could God judge the world?
7
“But,” you say, “if, through my lie, God’s truth is enhanced and brings him greater glory, why am I still judged merely for being a sinner?”
8
Indeed! Why not say (as some people slander us by claiming we do say), “Let us do evil, so that good may come of it”? Against them the judgment is a just one!
