Romans 2:4 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Or despisest thou — Dost thou go farther still, — from hoping to escape his wrath, to the abuse of his love?. The riches — The abundance. Of his goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering — Seeing thou both hast sinned, dost sin, and wilt sin. All these are afterwards comprised in the single word goodness. Leadeth thee — That is, is designed of God to lead or encourage thee to it.

Romans 2:4
