         Paul’s Letter To The Romans

19 - You might say to me, “Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?” {Concerning those he doesn’t yet call.} 20 But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will the clay say to the potter, “Why have you made me like this?” 21 Has the potter no right to his clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel as sacred and another as common? 22 What if God, desiring to show his wrath [orge - passion] {cause and effect/truth like gravity, isn’t made to be broken} and so to make known his power, has endured with much patience, vessels of wrath going to ruin [apóleia - ruin, loss, destruction] 23 in order to make known the riches of his glory upon/in vessels of mercy, which he makes ready for {widespread/full scope?) revelation/revealing [doxa - glory] 24 which he has called us, not from the Hebrews/Jews only, but also from the Gentiles/nations. 25 As indeed he says in Hosea, “Those who were not my people I will call ‘my people,’ and she [nations] who was not beloved I will call ‘beloved.’” 26 “Yes in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ there they will be called ‘sons and daughters of the living God.’”
