With Knowledge Comes Responsibility

Rom 3:1-2 What advantage then has the Jew, or what is the profit of circumcision?2 Much in every way! Chiefly because to them were committed the oracles of God

The Jew's had some advantages. The chief one being, they were entrusted with the oracles of God = the very words of God, Exodus 19-20; Deuteronomy 4:8.

They did a great job of keeping the word accurate. One would write a letter another would view. If at any time a mistake was made they would trash it all, no cross outs or erasers aloud. THE JEWS DID A GREAT JOB AT KEEPING THE ORACLES PURE.

They were also the race that the Messiah came from (Isaiah 11:1-10; Matthew. 1:1-17).
However this did not make them better than anyone else. Actually it made the Jews even more responsible to live up to Gods requirements. Because with knowledge comes responsibility.
