Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
¿Por qué pasó esto? Porque estaban tratando de ganárselo siguiendo reglas y haciendo buenas obras en lugar de simplemente confiar en Dios. Tropezaron con la misma cosa que se suponía que los ayudaría.
Israel tropezó porque buscaba justificarse por obras en lugar de confiar en Dios por fe.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century, the Apostle Paul wrote his letter to the Romans to address the spiritual struggles of both Jews and Gentiles, explaining why many Jews had rejected Jesus as the Messiah despite their deep religious heritage. He pointed out that they were pursuing righteousness through strict obedience to the Mosaic Law rather than through faith in Christ, which caused them to stumble over Jesus as a prophesied obstacle. This reflects the broader biblical narrative of God's shift from the old covenant of law to the new covenant of grace.
