Romans 5:9 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The apostle's arguing is cogent, for it is more to justify and reconcile sinners, than to save them being justified; Christ therefore having done the former, he will much more do the latter. By his blood; i.e. by faith in his blood or sufferings. From wrath; the Greek reads it with an article, from that wrath, whereby is meant the wrath to come, or eternal punishment.

Romans 5:9

9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
