ACC ~ Romans 9 v24

THOSE WHOM HE HAS CALLED. AMBROSIASTER: God has called those whom he has prepared for glory, who he knew would persevere in faith, whether they are near at hand or far away. COMMENTARY ON PAUL’S EPISTLES.

THE POTTER’S ONE LUMP. AUGUSTINE: God did not call all the Jews but only some of them. Nor did he call all the Gentiles but only some of them. From Adam has sprung one mass of sinners and godless men, in which both Jews and Gentiles belong to one lump, apart from the grace of God. If the potter out of one lump of clay makes one vessel for honor and another for dishonor, it is clear that God has made of the Jews some vessels for honor and others for dishonor, and similarly of the Gentiles. TO SIMPLICIAN ON VARIOUS QUESTIONS 1.2.19.

PELAGIUS: Since even then some of the Egyptians left with the children of Israel … so too now God has called not only Jews but also Gentiles to faith. PELAGIUS’S COMMENTARY ON ROMANS.
