Commentary
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary**29. Is he the God of the Jews only? &c.--**The way of salvation must be one equally suited to the whole family of fallen man: but the doctrine of justification by faith is the only one that lays the basis of a Universal Religion; this therefore is another mark of its truth.
