Romans4:9

9. Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? For we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.

This word Cometh, is not in the Original, but it is aptly inserted by our Translators.

Circumcision again is put for the Circumcis'd, and Vncircumcision for the Uncircumcis'd, vid. Rom. 2.28.

q. d. This we have Prov'd, and it is on all hands confest, That Abraham's Faith was reckon'd to him for Righteousness: Now therefore, the Question is, Whither this Blessedness of Justification belong to the Circumcis'd only, or to the Uncircumcis'd also.
