For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
All Commentaries on Romans 10:3 Go To Romans 10
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Once again, ignorance would seem to be an excuse for pardoning them. But it turns out to lead only to a stronger accusation…. It was from smallmindedness and a desire for power that they erred rather than from ignorance, and even their own righteousness was not based on keeping the law.
