Study Note
The declaration that 'the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe' is available without distinction echoes and applies the thesis statement of Romans (1:17) to the universal human condition established in 1:18-3:20. The phrase 'for all who believe' (eis pantas tous pisteuontas) removes every prior human qualification — ethnic, moral, ceremonial — as the basis for receiving God's righteousness. The contested phrase 'pisteos Christou' ('faith of/in Christ') opens the question of whether the human act of trusting Christ or the faithfulness of Christ himself is the instrument of righteousness, with significant theological implications for both human agency and Christology. The verse stands at the center of the Reformation's doctrine of justification and remains a locus classicus for Protestant-Catholic-Orthodox ecumenical dialogue.
