I følge verktøyet http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Romans+1&fromdoc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.02.0060 , og den engelske oversettelsen der, lyder de første versene, (uten at det noen steder henvises til de kristne eksplisitt. Tvert imot, det kommer ganske tydelig fram at det er til sin egen Jødiske menighet i Rom Sankt Paulus henvender seg. Det kommer tydelig fram av Apostlenes Gjerninger at Apostelen Paulus innehar Romerske Borgerrettigheter. Det er også derfor han kan anke ovenfor selveste Konge Agrippa, Jødenes, men ikke alle Israels stammers Konge; til så å bli stillt innfor rette ovenfor Keiseren selv. Det er fortellingen om Sankt Paulus reise til Keiseren i Rom som avslutter Apostlenes gjerninger. Boken som foregriper Paulus brev til romerne. Her følger den engelske oversettelsen. Men gå til linken her oven for grundigere undersøkelser:

text: *"Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God, [2] which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures, [3] concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, [4] who was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord, [5] through whom we received grace and apostleship, for obedience of faith among all the nations, for his name's sake; [6] among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ; [7] to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. [8] First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world. [9] For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers, [10] requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you. [11] For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established; [12] that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other's faith, both yours and mine. [13] Now I don't desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you, and was hindered so far, that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles. [14] I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish. [15] So, as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome. [16] For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes; for the Jew first, and also for the Greek. [17] For in it is revealed God's righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, "But the righteous shall live by faith." 
Bibeloversettelsen av 1930 har dog ikke denne fenomenale bommerten. En feil som sikkert kan forsvares i lys av oppgjøret med anti-semittismen. Teksten framstår ingenlunde Anti-semmittisk i lys av Paulus dobbelte identitet som borger av Rom, av nobleste byrd, samt Jøde av Fariseerpartiet. Hva for identitet som kan knyttes til den samtide Keiser forblir forsåvidt i det uvisse... med mindre det ligger fler skjulte nøkler som gradvis lar seg åpenbare.--Xactnorge 23. des 2010 kl. 07:49 (CET)
