The letter on Abraham’s offspring and the children of the promise
아브라함의 씨와 약속의 자녀에 대한 편지의 말
Romans 9:6–13: The letter says, “But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel that are of Israel. Neither, because they are Abraham’s offspring, are they all children. But, ‘your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac.’ That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as heirs. For this is a word of promise: ‘At the appointed time I will come, and Sarah will have a son.’ Not only so, but Rebekah also conceived by one, by our father Isaac. For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls, it was said to her, ‘The elder will serve the younger.’ Even as it is written, ‘Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.’” The Korean Revised Version reads 씨로 (as seed) at 9:8, where WEB reads “as heirs”; 명년 이 때에 (at this time next year) at 9:9, where WEB reads “At the appointed time”; and 리브가에게 이르시되 (said to Rebekah) at 9:12, where WEB reads “it was said to her”.
