Zeal Without Knowledge Leads to Fanaticism




Musings from the High Desert show

Summary: In chapters 9-11 of Romans, Paul thinks about the relationship of Messianic and non-Messianic Jews. In chapter 10, he begins by talking about "zeal without knowledge." This is the stopper for this week. Fr. Gabriel Rochelle works with this principal passage and explains Paul's emphasis on the two ways: righteousness grounded in your own ideas, concepts, and behaviors versus righteousness grounded in the Gospel.
