And hope makes not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who is given unto us
All Commentaries on Romans 5:5 Go To Romans 5
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
God having prevented us with his gifts when we did not at all deserve them, having showered upon us the blessings of faith, charity, patience, and fidelity, we cannot but have the greatest confidence that after this pledge and assurance of his good will towards us, he well finish the work he has begun, and bring us to his heavenly kingdom. (Calmet)
Not only the gift of the Holy Spirit, but the Spirit himself, is given to us, who resides in our soul as in his own temple, who sanctifies it, and makes it partaker of his divine love. (Menochius)
