For I long to see you The phrase "For I long to see you" reveals the deep personal desire and affection that the Apostle Paul has for the believers in Rome. The Greek word for "long" is "ἐπιποθέω" (epipotheō), which conveys an intense yearning or earnest desire. This longing is not merely a casual wish but a heartfelt passion driven by the Holy Spirit. Historically, Paul's missionary journeys were marked by his commitment to nurturing and strengthening the early church, and this longing reflects his pastoral heart. His desire to visit Rome is not just for fellowship but to fulfill his apostolic mission. so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you To the end ye may be established.--That they may grow and be confirmed and strengthened in the faith.

Verse 11. - For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established. Bengel, taking χάρισμα as the special gift of the Holy Ghost consequent on apostolic laying on of hands (cf. Acts 8:17, 18), argues from this verse that neither St. Peter nor any other apostle could have been at Rome so far. Though his conclusion is probably true, it does not follow from his premiss; for τὶ χάρισμα πνευματικὸν evidently means generally any gift of grace. All St. Paul implies is that he hopes to do them some spiritual good, so as to settle and strengthen them; and in the next verse, with characteristic delicacy, he even modifies what he has said, so as to guard against being supposed to imply that the benefit would be all on their side.Parallel Commentaries ...
