The Key Word — κλητοὶ, klētosgenerated
The word κλητός is an adjective meaning 'called' or 'invited,' derived from the verb καλέω (to call). It denotes those who are divinely chosen for a purpose, often related to salvation or a specific role within the church.
In this context, the participle indicates that the believers in Rome are not just called in a general sense but are specifically invited to be part of the community of followers of Jesus Christ, emphasizing their identity and mission as disciples.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.' The KJV uses 'Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ,' which maintains the same essential meaning but with a different structure.
The translations differ primarily in how they phrase the calling. The ASV states 'among whom are ye also, called to be Jesus Christ’s,' while the YLT simplifies it to 'among whom are also ye, the called of Jesus Christ.' The variations reflect different stylistic choices rather than significant changes in meaning.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is governed by the verb ἐστε, you are, which links the subject ὑμεῖς (you) to the predicate describing their identity as κλητοὶ (called). This structure emphasizes the state of being for the Roman believers.
The sentence includes a prepositional phrase ἐν οἷς (among whom) that introduces the community context, indicating their inclusion among those called by God.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The word κλητός is not directly found in the Septuagint but relates to the Hebrew concept of being set apart or called, as seen in terms like קֹ֫דֶשׁ (apartness, sacredness). This connection underscores the continuity of the theme of divine calling from the Old Testament to the New Testament.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Romans 1:6 tells us that the believers in Rome are called to belong to Jesus Christ. This means they are invited into a special relationship with Him and are part of a community of faith. Paul emphasizes that this calling is significant and marks their identity as followers of Christ.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Being called to belong to Jesus Christ means that individuals are invited into a personal relationship with Him and are part of the community of believers.
This calling signifies that believers are set apart for a purpose, to live as disciples of Jesus and to share His message with others.
No, the calling extends to all who believe in Jesus, regardless of their background, as indicated by Paul's message to the diverse church in Rome.
Grace is essential to the calling, as it is through God's grace that believers are invited into this relationship and empowered to live out their faith.

The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Early church Fathers commented on this verse to illustrate the nature of the calling to faith and holiness.
Paul is said to be called to be an apostle, and the Romans are also called, though not to be apostles. Rather they are called to be holy in the obedience of faith. We have already spoken above about the different callings.Early Church Fathers on Romans 1 →

He adds this, to show his warrant for writing to them, he did it by virtue of his office; as also to humble them; for though they were Romans, and such as bore the greatest sway in the world, yet they were formerly pagans and idolaters. The called of Jesus Christ: though such were some of you, to wit, heathen idolaters; yet now you are Christians, and the called of Jesus Christ: called outwardly by his word, and inwardly by his Spirit.

Called of Jesus Christ—i.e., not “called by Jesus Christ,” but “called and so belonging to Jesus Christ,” “your Master’s own elect ones.” (Comp. LXX., 1 Kings 1:41, where the words “guests of Adonijah” are in the Greek “called of Adonijah.”)

Ye are the called] Ye Romans are all invited to believe in Christ Jesus, for the salvation of your souls; and to you, with the rest, my apostolical mission extends. This appears to be the most obvious sense of the word called in this place-to be called by the Gospel is to be invited to believe in Christ Jesus, and become his disciples. The word sometimes means constituted, or made, as in Romans 1:1.

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
in quibus estis et vos vocati Jesu Christi :
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܕܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܩܪܝܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ
The Bible of the Syriac-speaking church, in the language nearest to the Aramaic Jesus spoke.
Shown verse by verse rather than word by word: aligning a Greek word to its Latin or Syriac counterpart automatically would be guesswork, and a wrong alignment is worse than none.

Every edition agrees. All 8 printed editions — Nestle-Aland 28, Nestle-Aland 27, SBLGNT, Westcott-Hort, Tregelles, Tyndale House 2017, Textus Receptus (KJV), Byzantine majority — carry every word of this verse, in the same order, with no difference that any translator would render differently.
The map of this verse — what each word keeps company with
This is a map of two things, both counted rather than judged. Company kept: which words stand within three words of each of these, anywhere in the Greek New Testament — the thicker the line, the more often the pair meet compared with chance. Built from: the words a word is made out of, taken from its own Strong’s entry. It is not a map of meaning: nothing here claims two words mean the same thing.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

σύ is the second-person singular pronoun meaning 'you' in Greek. It has various forms: genitive σοῦ, dative σοί, and accusative σέ.

The Greek word κλητός (klētos) means 'called' or 'invited,' derived from καλέω (kaleō). In the New Testament, it refers specifically to those divinely called to salvation or a particular office, such as apostles or saints. It is distinguished from ἐκλεκτός (eklektos), which also means 'chosen,' indicating a nuanced understanding of divine selection.
κλητός, -ή, -όν
(< καλέω),
[in LXX for קרא, מִקְרָא, Ex 12:16, al.;]
called, invited (as to a banquet, Æsch., I Ki 1:41, III Mac 5:14); in NT, always of the Divine call;
κλητός, -ή, -dv, (καλέω), [fr. Hom. down], called, invited, (to a banquet, [1 K. i. 41,49]; 3 Mace. v.14; Aeschin. 50,1); in the N. T. a. invited (by God in the proclamation of the gospel) to obtain eternal salvation in the kingdom of God through Christ (see καλέω, 1 b. B. [ef. W. 35 (34)]): Ro. viii. 28; 1 Co. i. 24; Jude 1; κλητοὶ k. ἐκλεκτοὶ κι πιστοί, Rey. xvii. 14; κλητοί and ἐκλεκτοί are distinguished (see ἐκλεκτός, 1 a.) in Mt. xx. 16 [T W Hom. Tr br. the el.]; xxii. 14, a distinction which does not agree with Paul’s view (see καλέω, τι. s.; [ Weiss, Bibl. Theol. ὃ 88; Bp. Lght/t. Com. on Col. iii. 12]) ; κλητοὶ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, gen. of possessor [W. 195 (183); B. § 132, 23], devoted to Christ and united to him, Ro.i. 6; κλητοὶ ἅγιοι, holy (or ‘ saints’) by the calling of God, Ro. i. 7; 1 Co. ie b. called to (the discharge of) some office: κλητὸς ἀπόστολος, i. 6. divinely selected…
Read the full entry →κλητός is found in P Amh II. 79° (c. A.p. 186), but unfortunately in a much mutilated context. The way is prepared for the NT usage (see Lightfoot on Col 3135) by the mention of the “‘ouests ’ (ot κλητοί) of Adonijah in 1 Kings 14449. Slaten (Qualztative Nouns, p. 57) throws out the conjecture that κλητός was a cult term adopted by the Christians from the terminology of the Greek mysteries, but he offers no evidence. As bringing out that ot κλητοί, as distinguished from ot κεκλημένοι, denotes that the call has been obeyed, we may cite Cl. Alex. Strom. I. 89. 3 (p. 57, ed. Stahlin) πάντων τοίνυν ἀνθρώπων κεκλημένων οἱ ὑπακοῦσαι βουληθέντες ᾿ κλητοὶ ᾿ ὠνομάσθησαν.

The Greek word Ἰησοῦς (*Iēsous*) refers primarily to Jesus, the Savior, and is derived from the Hebrew name Joshua or Jehoshua. It appears frequently in the New Testament, denoting Jesus Christ, and also refers to other figures named Jesus, such as Jesus, son of Eliezer, and Jesus Justus. The entries consistently identify it as a common name among Israelites.

Χριστός (Christos) means 'anointed' and refers specifically to the Messiah, a title used for Jesus in the New Testament. The term is derived from the verb χρίω (to anoint) and appears in various contexts, including references to anointing oil and the anointed kings of Israel. It is used substantively as 'the Christ' in many New Testament verses, such as Matthew 2:4 and John 1:20.

Christ
Anointed, the Greek translation of the Hebrew word rendered “Messiah” (q.v.), the official title of our Lord, occurring five hundred and fourteen times in the New Testament. It denotes that he was anointed or consecrated to his great redemptive work as Prophet, Priest, and King of his people. He is Jesus the Christ (Acts 17:3; 18:5; Matt. 22:42), the Anointed One. He is thus spoken of by Isaiah (61:1), and by Daniel (9:24-26), who styles him “Messiah the Prince.”
The Messiah is the same person as “the seed of the woman” (Gen. 3:15), “the seed of Abraham” (Gen. 22:18), the “Prophet like unto Moses” (Deut.…
[Jesus]
Anointed, a Greek word, answering to the Hebrew MESSIAH, the consecrated or anointed one, and given preeminently to our blessed Lord and Savior. See MESSIAH and JESUS.
The ancient Hebrews, being instructed by the prophets, had clear notions of the Messiah; but these became gradually depraved, so that when Jesus appeared in Judea, the Jews entertained a false conception of the Messiah, expecting a temporal monarch and conqueror, who should remove the Roman yoke and subject the whole world. Hence they were scandalized at the outward appearance, the humility, and seeming weakness of our Savior. The modern Jews, including still greater mistakes, form to themselves ideas of the Messiah utterly unknown to their forefathers.
The ancient prophets had foretold that the Messiah should be God, and man; exalted, and abased; master, and servant; priest, and victim; prince, and subject; involved in…
