ACC ~ Romans 4 v10

THE FATHER OF ALL UNCIRCUMCISED BELIEVERS. ORIGEN: In that Abraham was justified while he was still uncircumcised, it is obvious that he is the head and father of all uncircumcised believers. COMMENTARY ON THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS.

AMBROSIASTER: What did Abraham believe? He believed that he would have a descendant, a son, in whom all the nations would be justified by faith while they were still uncircumcised, as Abraham then was. COMMENTARY ON PAUL’S EPISTLES.

PELAGIUS: Now we must see whether circumcision is born of righteousness or righteousness of circumcision. It must be the former, because Abraham was righteous before he was circumcised. PELAGIUS’S COMMENTARY ON ROMANS.

FAITH OLDER THAN CIRCUMCISION. THEODORET OF CYR: Paul demonstrates that faith was not only older than the law, it was older than circumcision as well. INTERPRETATION OF THE LETTER TO THE ROMANS.
