Romans Study Notes—Chapter 10

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
- 10:16
  
  Jehovah, who has put faith in the thing heard from us?: Paul here quotes the first part of Isa 53:1 regarding Jehovah’s servant and shows that Isaiah’s prophecy was fulfilled in Jesus. While the coming and glorification of Jesus—the Messiah—was good news, Paul says about the unbelieving Jews: They did not all obey the good news. Relatively few in Paul’s day put faith in the good news about God’s Servant.—For the use of the divine name here, see App. C3 introduction; Ro 10:16.
