ROMANS—NOTE ON Romans 10:6 Paul quotes Deuteronomy 30:12 to show the contrast between the righteousness based on faith and the righteousness that comes from the law. There is no need to travel to heaven to bring Christ to earth, for God has already sent him into the world. Nor should anyone think they must bring Christ up from the realm of the dead, for God has raised Christ from the dead. What God requires is not superhuman works but faith in the gospel.
