In reply to “V. T. S.” we would say that we know no better rendering of Romans 4:2525Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification. (Romans 4:25), than that given in our excellent authorized version. The doctrine of the passage is simply this: Christ, having died under the full weight of “our offenses,” was laid in the grave, and there was an end to all that was or could be against us. Wherefore, inasmuch as every claim had been fully met, God entered the scene, and “raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;” and all who believe in Him are justified from all things. A risen Christ is the grand proof that there is nothing against the believer. Biblical criticism would not comport with the character and object of this magazine; but we should hail with delight an article from some able pen, on the power and use of the Greek preposition.
