Romans 9:18 Context
15For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I volition have pity on whom I will have compassion. 16Then then information technology is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, only of God that sheweth mercy. 17For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my proper name might be alleged throughout all the earth. 18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth. 19Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he all the same find fault? For who hath resisted his will? 20Nay but, O man, who art g that repliest against God? Shall the affair formed say to him that formed information technology, Why hast thou made me thus? 21Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to brand i vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonour?

People'south Bible Notes for Romans 9:18
Ro ix:xviii Therefore he hath mercy. Ro ix:fifteen has shown that he hath mercy according to his own sense of right, not according to any human being lawmaking. The case of Pharaoh shows, in addition, that whom he will he hardeneth. Godet says: ``What must not exist forgotten, and what appears distinctly, from the whole narrative in Exodus, is that Pharaoh's hardening was at first "his own human activity". V times it is said of him that he himself hardened, or fabricated heavy his heart (Ex 7:13 7:22 eight:15 8:32 ix:7), earlier the time when information technology is at last said that God hardened him (Ex 9:12), and even after that information technology is said that he hardened himself (Ex 9:34). Thus he at first closed his own heart to God's appeals; grew harder by stubborn resistance under God'southward judgments, until at last God, equally a punishment for his obstinate rejection of right, gave him over to his mad folly and took away his judgment.'' At beginning Pharaoh hardened his own heart; God's judgments only made it harder, and and so God "gave him over" (Ro i:28). God only made harder, by his judgments and by leaving him to his folly, ane who had already hardened his own heart. That he was given over to madness is shown in the record. Even his magician said, "This is the finger of God" (Ex viii:19). He himself once said, "I have sinned; the Lord is righteous" (Ex 9:27). Had he non hardened himself over again, the effect would accept been different. Then God gave him upwardly to his ain folly, "to hardness of heart and reprobacy of mind". The Jews approved of all this in the instance of Pharaoh, but held that God could never carelessness them on account of their sinful class. Paul's argument is, that if they, the favored people, should pursue Pharaoh's course, they might experience Pharaoh's fate. They, too, hardening themselves, might exist "delivered over to hardness", for God is not limited by race, or by any limitation, but hardens whom he wills. "He wills to harden those who harden themselves". I have dwelt upon this passage at greater length than usual because it is so piffling understood. Godet well says that in this whole passage Paul is not writing theology, but answering the arrogant pretensions of Jewish Pharisaism, and hence he asserts the Divine liberty. Had he been replying to those who have exaggerated this liberty into a purely arbitrary and tyrannical will, he would have brought out the contrary side of truth.
