I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the Jews. He teaches us that God is true. He shows us that God will keep the promises he made to the founders of our nation. Jesus became a servant of the Jews. He did this so that the Gentiles might give glory to God for his mercy. It is written,

“I will praise you among the Gentiles.
    I will sing the praises of your name.” (2 Samuel 22:50; Psalm 18:49)

10 Again it says,

“You Gentiles, be full of joy.
    Be joyful together with God’s people.” (Deuteronomy 32:43)
