Context of the Book of Romans
Paul wrote the letter to the Romans around AD 57-58, while he was in Corinth. At the time, Rome was the center of the world's political and military power, and it was also home to a diverse population that included Jews and Gentiles. The church in Rome was made up of both Jewish and Gentile believers, and there was likely tension and division between these groups. Paul's letter to the Romans was written to address these issues and to provide a clear explanation of his gospel message, which emphasized salvation through faith in Jesus Christ alone. Additionally, Paul hoped to gain the support of the Roman Christians for his planned missionary journey to Spain. The letter to the Romans is considered one of Paul's most important theological works and has had a significant impact on Christian theology and doctrine.
