	An Exposition of Van Manen's Epistle to the Romans - Thomas Whittaker
		The faith of the Roman Christians is spoken of throughout the whole world (1:8); so that the Apostle can put it on a level with his own (1:12): and yet he speaks of himself as striving to preach the Gospel not where Christ was named, lest he should build upon another man's foundation (15:20).
		In the Epistle to the Romans almost nothing is said of his life on earth: to the cross there is only one allusion (6:6).

	THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS
		This can be especially deduced from Romans chapter 15, verses 20-29, where Paul states that he was detained from visiting them, for his ambition to proclaim the Gospel only in those places where Christ was not yet known; for he preferred not to be building on another man’s work.
		The epistle of Paul to the Colossians is an example of a scroll which had escaped the fate of “loose-leaf” shuffling, and which is intact today probably because it was copied and passed on due to the apostle’s instruction that it also be read in the church of the Laodiceans.
		The epistle commending Phoebe as a courier is a separate entity as evidenced by the greetings to its Ephesian recipients, and should not be regarded as a part of the original epistle to the Romans, but, as suggested above, is an introductory letter subjoined to the epistle.

	HPR \| Spiritual Exercises Based on Paul's Epistle to the Romans
		Ignatius has his own particular way of relating what is known to our imagination of what further it might be like to have been there and to savor the meaning of the various scenes in the life of Christ.
		His discussion of the Gentiles who do not know God, of the chapters on the fate of Israel, of the discussions of Adam and Christ, sin and grace, are cast in such a way that their often opaqueness to the ordinary reader becomes convincingly sensible and a guide to both understanding and action.
		In short, Spiritual Exercises Based on Paul’s Epistle to the Romans, however unexpected a title, is a welcome and most useful guide from a man who has spent his life reflecting on not just the text but what it means in our on-going lives in faith, freedom, and grace.
