Clarke's Bible Commentary - Romans 4:24

Verse 24. But for us also] The mention of this circumstance has a much more extensive design than merely to honour Abraham. It is recorded as the model, according to which God will save both Jews and Gentiles: indeed there can be no other way of salvation; as all have sinned, all must either be saved by faith through Christ Jesus, or finally perish. If God, therefore, will our salvation, it must be by faith; and faith contemplates his promise, and his promise comprehends the Son of his love.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 24. But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed , etc..] What was written in the books of the Old Testament, was not written merely on account of them who are the subjects thereof, but for the use, learning, instruction and profit of saints under the New Testament dispensation; and particularly this concerning the pulsation of Abraham's faith for righteousness, or of the imputation of the righteousness of faith unto him for justification; which was not Abraham's faith, but that �righteousness� which his faith looked to, and laid hold on: (see Romans 4:12); for Abraham's faith itself could never be reckoned for righteousness to another, nor indeed was it to himself; but such as believe as Abraham did, they have the same righteousness imputed to them as he had; and truly of the same kind is the faith of Abraham, who believed in �God that quickeneth the dead�, ( Romans 4:17); and that of ours: if , or �seeing� we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead ; which descriptive of the faith of New Testament believers, and of the object of it; (see Romans 10:9,10); and which object of faith is further described in ( Romans 4:25).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 23-25 - The history of Abraham, and of his justification, was recorded to teac men of after-ages; those especially to whom the gospel was then mad known. It is plain, that we are not justified by the merit of our ow works, but by faith in Jesus Christ and his righteousness; which is the truth urged in this and the foregoing chapter, as the great spring an foundation of all comfort. Christ did meritoriously work ou justification and salvation by his death and passion, but the power an perfection thereof, with respect to us, depend on his resurrection. By his death he paid our debt, in his resurrection he received ou acquittance, Isa 53:8. When he was discharged, we, in Him and togethe with Him, received the discharge from the guilt and punishment of all our sins. This last verse is an abridgement or summary of the whol gospel __________________________________________________________________

Vincent's NT Word Studies

24. It shall be reckoned (mellei logizesqai).. Not the future of the verb to reckon, but mellw to intend points to God's definite purpose. See on Acts xxvii. 2; 2 Pet. i. 12.

Who believe. Since we are those who believe.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

4:24 {Him that raised up Jesus} (ton egeiranta iesoun). First aorist active articular participle of egeirw, to raise up. The fact of the Resurrection of Jesus is central in Paul's gospel (#1Co 15:4ff.).
