geneva@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, (note:)The first part of the epistle contains a most profitable preface down to verse six.(:note) a Paul, exhorting the Romans to give diligent heed to him, in that he shows that he comes not in his own name, but as God's messenger to the Gentiles, entreats them with the weightiest matter that exists, promised long ago by God, by many good witnesses, and now at length indeed performed.Minister, for this word «servant» is not taken in this place as set against the word «freeman», but rather refers to and declares his ministry and office. servant of Jesus Christ, called [to be] an Whereas he said before in a general term that he was a minister, now he comes to a more special name, and says that he is an apostle, and that he did not take this office upon himself by his own doing, but that he was called by God, and therefore in this letter of his to the Romans he is doing nothing but his duty. apostle, Appointed by God to preach the gospel. separated unto the gospel of God,

geneva@Romans:2:24 @ For ye Name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

geneva@Romans:11:4 @ But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have (note:)He speaks of remnants and reserved people who were chosen from everlasting, and not of remnants that should be chosen afterwards: for they are not chosen, because they were not idolaters: but rather they were not idolaters, because they were chosen and elect.(:note) reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to [the image of] «Baal» signifies as much as «master» or «patron», or one in whose power another is, which name the idolaters in this day give their idols, naming them «patrons», and «patronesses» or «ladies». Baal.

geneva@Romans:13:9 @ For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other commandment, it is (note:)For the whole law commands nothing else but that we love God and our neighbour. But seeing that Paul speaks here of the duties we owe one to another, we must restrain this word «law» to the second table of the ten commandments.(:note) briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

geneva@Romans:15:20 @ Yea, so I enforced my selfe to preach the Gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should haue built on another mans foundation.

geneva@1Corinthians:1:5 @ That in every thing ye are enriched by him, (note:)He refers to that by name which they abused the most.(:note) in Seeing that while we live here we know but in part, and prophesy in part, this word «all» must be limited by the present state of the faithful: and by «utterance» he does not mean a vain kind of babbling, but the gift of holy eloquence, which the Corinthians abused. all utterance, and [in] all knowledge;

geneva@1Corinthians:1:15 @ Lest any should say, that I had baptized into mine owne name.

geneva@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is (note:)They are greatly to be reprehended who by allowing wickedness, set forth the Church of God to be mocked and scorned by infidels.(:note) reported commonly [that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.

geneva@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the (note:)Calling upon Christ's name.(:note) name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, There is no doubt that the judgment is ratified in heaven, in which Christ himself sits as Judge. with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

geneva@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the (note:)In Jesus.(:note) name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

geneva@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now (note:)He begins to entreat of another type of indifferent things, that is, things offered to idols, or the use of flesh so offered and sacrificed. And first of all he removes all those things which the Corinthians pretended in using things offered to idols without any respect. First of all they affirmed that this difference of foods was for the unskilful men, but as for them, they knew well enough the benefit of Christ, which causes all these things to be clean to those that are clean. Be it so, Paul says: even if we are all sufficiently instructed in the knowledge of Christ, I say nonetheless that we must not simply rest in this knowledge. The reason is, that unless our knowledge is tempered with charity, it does not only not avail, but also does much hurt, because it is the mistress of pride. Nay, it does not so much as deserve the name of godly knowledge, if it is separate from the love of God, and therefore from the love of our neighbour.(:note) as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we This general word is to be abridged as (1Co_8:7) appears, for there is a type of taunt in it, as we may perceive by (1Co_8:2). all have knowledge. Knowledge Gives occasion of vanity and pride, because it is void of charity. puffeth up, but charity Instructs our neighbour. edifieth.

geneva@1Corinthians:8:6 @ But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, (note:)When the Father is distinguished from the Son, he is named the beginning of all things.(:note) of whom [are] all things, and we We have our being in him. in him; and But as the Father is called Lord, so is the Son therefore God: therefore this word «one» does not regard the persons, but the natures. one Lord Jesus Christ, This word «by» does not signify the instrumental cause, but the efficient: for the Father and the Son work together, which is not so to be taken that we make two causes, seeing they have both but one nature, though they are distinct persons. by whom [are] all things, and we by him.

geneva@1Corinthians:10:20 @ But I [say], that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have (note:)Have anything to do with the demons, or enter into that society which is begun in the demon's name.(:note) fellowship with devils.

geneva@1Corinthians:14:11 @ Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that (note:)As the papists in all their sermons, and they that ambitiously pour out some Hebrew or Greek words in the pulpit before the unlearned people, by this to get themselves a name of vain learning.(:note) speaketh [shall be] a barbarian unto me.

geneva@1Corinthians:16:15 @ I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of (note:)Stephanas is the name of a man and not of a woman.(:note) Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and [that] they have Given themselves wholly to the ministry. addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,)

And those that translated the Old Testament out of Hebrew into Greek, called the garden of Eden by this name, into which Adam was put immediately after his creation, as a most delicate and pleasant place. And from this it occurred that the blessed seat of the glory of God is called by that name.(:note) paradise, and heard Which no man is able to utter. unspeakable words, which it is not Which the saints themselves are not by any means able to express, because it is God himself. This is the way that Clement of Alexandria explains this passage, Strom. 5. lawful for a man to utter.

geneva@Galatians:1:16 @ To reveal his Son (note:)To me, and this is a type of speech which the Hebrews use, by which it shows us that this gift comes from God.(:note) in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately He says this because it might be objected that he was indeed called by Christ in the way, but afterward was instructed by the apostles and others (whose names, as I said before, the false apostles abused to destroy his apostleship), as though he delivered another Gospel than they did, and as though he were not of their number, who are to be credited without exception. Therefore, Paul answers that he began immediately after his calling to preach the Gospel at Damascus and in Arabia, and was not from that time in Jerusalem except for fifteen days, when he saw only Peter and James. And afterwards, he began to teach in Syria and Cilicia, with the consent and approval of the churches of the Jews, who knew him only by name: so far off was it, that he was there instructed by men.

The articles of this doctrine were required from those who were not yet members of the Church on the days appointed for their baptism. Of those articles, two are by name recited: the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. (Ed.) not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
