Concluding Remarks
Throughout our commentary on Romans we have tried to show the relevance of the major themes developed here: justification by faith, the emphasis on the present reality of justification contrasted with the former life of sin, and most importantly, the inclusion of all‐Jews and Gentiles‐in a new Israel of God, the church. The ethical section of Romans may be seen as a description of the church living in but not of the world. It would be hard to overestimate the influence of Romans in the development of Christian doctrine and morality throughout history.
