Romans 10:2

10:2 For I can testify that they are zealous for God, 1  but their zeal is not in line with the truth. 2 

1 tn Grk “they have a zeal for God.”

2 tn Grk “in accord with knowledge.”

sn Their zeal is not in line with the truth means that the Jews’ passion for God was strong, but it ignored the true righteousness of God (v. 3; cf. also 3:21).
