How then is the Jew better off? or what profit is there in circumcision?

In no way: because if it is so, how is God able to be the judge of all the world?

How, then, was it judged? when he had circumcision, or when he had it not? Not when he had it, but when he did not have it:

But how will they give worship to him in whom they have no faith? and how will they have faith in him of whom they have not had news? and how will they have news without a preacher?

O how deep is the wealth of the wisdom and knowledge of God! no one is able to make discovery of his decisions, and his ways may not be searched out.

For all have knowledge of how you do what you are ordered. For this reason I have joy in you, but it is my desire that you may be wise in what is good, and without knowledge of evil.
