Commentary on Romans 8:25

Theological / Devotional

Patience. Greek hupomone, a word denoting perseverance amid obstacles. Paul is doubtless pointing to the sufferings mentioned in v. 18. We cannot as yet see ultimate salvation, but we do hope for it. Therefore, we are willing patiently to endure the sufferings that lie on the road to it.

Wait for. Greek apekdechomai (see on v. 19; cf. v. 23).
