Romans9:24

24. Even, us whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles .

Hitherto he hath been shewing, That the Promise was never made or meant to the Carnal Seed of Abraham. This Argument he began ver. 6, 7. and he continues it (using several Apostrophes and Amplifications, which were to his purpose) till he comes to these words; and here he tells you plainly, who are the True Seed of Abraham, and the Children of the Promise; even the called of God of all Nations, whether Iews or Gentiles. And he takes occasion to fall into it, by speaking of some in the foregoing Verse, that were Vessels of mercy afore prepared unto glory; Now here, in this Verse, he tells you who these are (and to be sure they are the Persons he is enquiring after, viz. The Spiritual Seed of Abraham, and the Children of the promise) He sayes, They are such as God called, i. e. Effectually called, not of the Iews only, but of the Gentiles also; and that this is so, he farther proves in the following Verse.
