Verse. 16. That I should preach him among the Gentiles.
It pleased God (saith he) to reveal his son in me. To what purpose? Not only, that I my self should believe in the son of God, but also that I should preach him among the Gentiles.1 And why not among the Jews? Lo here we see that Paul is properly the Apostle of the Gentiles, albeit he preached Christ among the Jews also.
