Matthew Poole and continuators on Romans 8:33

33. Who shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods elect ? It is God that justifieth.

Who can implead such, or put in any Accusation against them? There is nothing to Accuse them of, they are justified; and there is none to Accuse them; It is God that hath justified them; the Supream Judge hath absolved them. This seems to be taken out of Isaiah 50.8, 9. They were Christ's Words there, and spoken of God's justifying him; they are every Believers Words here, and intended of God's justifying them. Here seems to be two Reasons of their Indemnity; One is imply'd, i. e. God's electing them: The Other exprest, i. e. God's justifying and acquitting of them.
