Romans 4

• Doctrine

  Faith

  Jewish emunah is generally praxis-oriented (faithfulness expressed through mitzvot); must be anchored as personal trust in Messiah specifically, not implicitly bundled with continued Torah observance as its necessary expression.

  ROM.4.1-25

• Glossary Term

  Faith

  Emunah (root א-מ-ן, same as 'amen') is generally understood in Jewish usage as faithfulness demonstrated through observance of mitzvot - praxis-oriented, not primarily propositional.

  ROM.4.1-25

• Glossary Term

  Resurrection

  CRITICAL: unlike other languages, Judaism itself affirms a future general resurrection (one of the 13 Principles of Faith, recited in the Amidah's 'mechayeh hametim' blessing) - so the word is not the problem.

  ROM.4.25

• Doctrine

  Resurrection of Christ

  CRITICAL: Judaism affirms general future resurrection (one of the 13 Principles of Faith), so the concept itself is not foreign.
