Friday 2021.03.19 Reading from Romans Chapter 15 WNT
Septuagint (LXX Brenton) cross references for the following verses quoted by the Apostle concerning Gentiles' acknowledgement of the mercies of God.
Romans 15:8 - 13 WNT
8 My meaning is that Christ has become a servant to the people of Israel in vindication of God's truthfulness-- in showing how sure are the promises made to our forefathers--
9 and that the Gentiles also have glorified God in acknowledgment of His mercy. So it is written, "For this reason I will praise Thee among the Gentiles, and sing psalms in honour of Thy name."
Psalm 18:49 (17:50 in LXX)
Therefore will I confess to thee, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name.
10 And again the Psalmist says, "Be glad, ye Gentiles, in company with His People."
Deuteronomy 32:43 LXX
. . . rejoice ye Gentiles, with his people, and let all the sons of God strengthen themselves in him; . . .
11 And again, "Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles, and let all the people extol Him."
Psalm 117:1 (116:1 in LXX)
Alleluia. Praise the Lord, all ye nations: praise him, all ye peoples.
12 And again Isaiah says, "There shall be the Root of Jesse and One who rises up to rule the Gentiles. On Him shall the Gentiles build their hopes."
Isaiah 11:10 LXX
And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall arise to rule over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust, . . .
13 May God, the giver of hope, fill you with continual joy and peace because you trust in Him--so that you may have abundant hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.
