The letter to the Romans has been divided by most bible scholars into two primary sections – a doctrinal section presented in chapters 1-11 and a practical section that begins in chapter 12 and unpacks the Christian life until the end of the letter in chapter 16. I would like for us to look into that last section where we are instructed in how to live a victorious Christian life today.
Romans 15:4 is a parenthesis in which Paul reminds the reader of the validity of citing Old Testament texts as a basis for ethical exhortation to Christians, whether they were living in Paul’s day in the city of Corinth, an ancient day described in the Old Testament such as David’s time period or in our day in any of our modern cities.
