Romans 15:5-7

Now the God of patience and consolation From whom all these gracious and seasonable provisions proceed; grant you to be like- minded one toward another That is, to be united in peace and love; according to Christ Jesus His doctrine, command, and example, and for his honour and glory. Or, as το αυτο φρονειν εν αλληλοις may be properly rendered, to have the same disposition toward one another; the verb φρονειν, signifying to care for, as well as to think, Philippians 2:2: a disposition, therefore, to live in peace with one another, and to bear one another's weaknesses, according to Christ's precept and example, is here prayed for on behalf of the Romans. Having in the preceding verse mentioned the patience and consolation of the Scripture, the apostle here calls God the God of patience and consolation, to show that the patience and consolation of the saints proceeded from him. In like manner, having in Rom 15:12 said, In him the Gentiles shall hope, he calls God, Romans 15:13, the God of hope, to show that the hope which the Gentiles entertained of salvation, proceeded from him. So also Romans 15:33, the God of peace, and elsewhere, the God of glory, the God of order, &c. That ye Both Jews and Gentiles; believing with one mind And confessing with one mouth, or with united hearts and voices, may glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ Who hath sent his beloved Son into the world, to unite our hearts in love to each other, and in gratitude to him for his unspeakable love to us. Wherefore receive ye one another Weak and strong, into communion with mutual love, without despising or judging one another; as Christ also received us Whether Jews or Gentiles, to be members of his body the church, and joint heirs with him of eternal felicity; to the glory of God Namely, of his truth to the Jews and mercy to the Gentiles.
