Romans 10:2

The Righteousness Of God Through Faith In Christ

¹ Brothers, my heart's desire and [fervent] request to God is for the salvation of my fellow-Jews. [See 9:3-4]. ² For I can testify that they have an enthusiasm for God, but it is without [true] knowledge. ³ For they did not know about God's way of making people right with Himself, so they attempted to establish their own way. In doing this they did not submit to God's way for being made right with Him.
