Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed [it] unto them.
Romans 1:19 — KJV
May be known. Or, “is known.”
In them. That is, in their hearts and consciences (see ch. 2:15).
God hath shewed. God reveals Himself to man in three ways: by an internal revelation to the reason and conscience of each man (Rom. 2:15; cf. John 1:9), by an external revelation in the works of creation (Rom. 1:20), and by special revelation in the Scriptures and in the person and work of Christ, which confirms and completes the other revelations. Paul is here referring to the first two. God has endowed men with reason and conscience. He had made them capable of seeing and investigating His works. He has spread before them the evidence of His goodness, wisdom, and power. Thus God has made it possible for Gentiles as well as Jews to learn of Him.
