A Practical Exposition
BY CHARLES GORE, M.A., D.D. - OF THE COMMUNITY OF THE RESURRECTION CANON OF WESTMINSTER; CHAPLAIN TO THE KING
VOL. II (CHAPTERS IX-XVI)
LONDON JOHN MURRAY, ALBEMARLE STREET 1901
PREFACE
THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS.
THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS
DIVISION IV. CHAPTERS IX-XI. - The theodicy or justification of God for His dealings with the Jews.
DIVISION IV. § 1. CHAPTER IX. 1-13. - The present rejection of Israelites no breach of a divine promise.
DIVISION IV. § 2. CHAPTER IX. 14-29. - God's liberty in showing mercy and judgement always retained and asserted.
This volume offers a clear‑spoken walk through the latter half of Paul’s letter to the Romans, where theological depth meets everyday concern. The author steadies his exposition with a conversational tone, inviting listeners to wrestle with questions of divine justice, the fate of Israel, and the universal reach of grace without getting lost in academic jargon. By framing the discussion as a dialogue between Scripture and the modern mind, the work remains both scholarly and approachable.
The second part moves from doctrine to practice, outlining Paul’s calls for self‑surrender, communal spirit, and respectful engagement with civil authority. It also delves into themes of mutual toleration, unselfish forbearance, and the inclusive vision of the early church. Supplemental notes explore the meanings of faith, conscience, atonement, and even the relationship between evolution and the doctrine of the Fall, giving listeners plenty of material for thoughtful reflection.

A leading Anglican thinker of his time, he tried to show that Christian faith could face modern scholarship and science without losing its spiritual depth. His books and sermons helped shape English religious life well beyond the churches he served.
