Romans1:11

11. For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end you may be established.

He declares his end in desiring to see them; it was not his own profit, but their Edification. By some spiritual Gift, he means some one or other of those Gifts of the Spirit, of which particular mention is made, 1 Cor. 12.7.8, 9, 10, 11.

q. d. I don't intend to bring any New Doctrine to you, but to Confirm and Establish you in that which you have already Heard and Receiv'd. Establishing Grace is that which all Christians stand in need of, vid. Rom. 16.25. 1 Thess. 3.8.13. 2 Thess. 2.15.16, 17.

Marginal references: Chap. 15.29.
