Greek Commentary for Romans 3:22
Not adversative here. It defines here. [source]
Intermediate agency See note on 1 Corinthians 14:7 for the difference of sounds in musical instruments. Also in Romans 10:12. The Jew was first in privilege as in penalty (Romans 2:9.), but justification or setting right with God is offered to both on the same terms. [source]

A common form for “faith in Christ.” [source]
Only by Paul here, Romans 10:12; 1 Corinthians 14:7. Better, as Rev., distinction. [source]

Objective genitive τεου theou as in Galatians 3:26; Romans 3:22, Romans 3:26. That was the lesson for the disciples from the curse on the fig tree so promptly fulfilled. See this point explained by Jesus in Matthew 21:21 which see for “this mountain” also. [source]
Wrong. In death, as Rev. As the sphere or dominion of death's tyranny. Compare Romans 5:14, “death reigned.” Some, however, explain the preposition as instrumental, by death. How much is lost by the inaccurate rendering of the prepositions. Ellicott remarks that there are few points more characteristic of the apostle's style than his varied but accurate use of prepositions, especially of two or more in the same or in immediately contiguous clauses. See Romans 3:22; Ephesians 4:6; Colossians 1:16. [source]
Lit., him which is of faith in Jesus. See on Romans 3:22. Some texts omit of Jesus. The expression “of faith” indicates the distinguishing peculiarity of the justified as derived from faith in Christ. For the force of ἐκ outof, see on Luke 16:31; see on John 8:23; see on John 12:49; see on 1 John 5:19. [source]
Better, as Rev., distinction. See on Romans 3:22. [source]
See note on this word Romans 3:22. Here it is followed by the ablative case Ιουδαιου τε και ελληνος Ioudaiou te kai Hellēnos (between Jew and Greek). [source]
Proper modulation. Compare the use of the word in Romans 3:22; Romans 10:12. [source]

The Holy Spirit who inspires our faith. Not as Lightfoot, spiritually. The words πνεύματι ἐκ πίστεως are not to be taken as one conception, the Spirit which is of faith, but present two distinct and coordinate facts which characterize the waiting for the hope of righteousness; namely, the agency of the Holy Spirit, in contrast with the flesh (comp. Romans 7:6; Romans 8:4, Romans 8:15, Romans 8:16; Ephesians 1:13; Ephesians 2:22), and faith in contrast with the works of the law (comp. Galatians 3:3, and see Galatians 2:16; Galatians 3:3; Romans 1:17; Romans 3:22; Romans 9:30; Romans 10:6). [source]
The objective genitive Χριστου Christou not subjective, as in Galatians 2:16, Galatians 2:20; Romans 3:22. Explained further by επι τηι πιστει epi tēi pistei (on the basis of faith) as in Acts 3:16. [source]
Lit. of our Lord. For a similar use of the genitive, see John 5:42; 1 John 2:5, 1 John 2:15; Acts 9:31; Romans 1:5; Romans 3:18, Romans 3:22, Romans 3:26, etc. Connect with hope only. [source]
Present active imperative of εχω echō with negative μη mē exhortation to stop holding or not to have the habit of holding in the fashion condemned.The faith of our Lord Jesus Christ (την πιστιν του κυριου ημων Ιησου Χριστου tēn pistin tou kuriou hēmōn Iēsou Christou). Clearly objective genitive, not subjective (faith of), but “faith in our Lord Jesus Christ,” like εχετε πιστιν τεου echete pistin theou (Mark 11:22), “have faith in God.” See the same objective genitive with πιστις pistis in Acts 3:6; Galatians 2:16; Romans 3:22; Revelation 14:12. Note also the same combination as in James 1:1 “our Lord Jesus Christ” (there on a par with God).The Lord of Glory Simply “the Glory.” No word for “Lord” A Christian word, like προσωπολημπτης prosōpolēmptēs (Acts 10:34) and προσωπολημπτειτε prosōpolēmpteite (James 2:9), not in lxx or any previous Greek, but made from προσωπον λαμβανειν prosōpon lambanein (Luke 20:21; Galatians 2:6), which is α a Hebrew idiom for panim nasa, “to lift up the face on a person,” to be favorable and so partial to him. See προσωπολημπσια prosōpolēmpsia in this sense of partiality (respect of persons) in Romans 2:11; Colossians 3:25; Ephesians 6:9 (nowhere else in N.T.). Do not show partiality. [source]
