Sections marked generated are written from the data on this page rather than by a named author. Everything else — the lexicon entries, the cross references, the manuscript readings, the counts — is quoted from its source unchanged.
Context — Submission to Authoritiesgenerated
Romans 13:2 emphasizes the importance of submitting to governing authorities, which Paul explains are instituted by God. He asserts that resistance to such authority is not merely a social issue but a spiritual one, as it directly opposes God's ordination. This teaching aligns with the broader biblical theme of respecting and obeying those in positions of power, as seen in 1 Peter 2:13.

The Key Word — ἀντιτάσσω, antitassōgenerated
The word ἀντιτασσόμενος is a present middle participle of ἀντιτάσσω, which combines the prefix ἀντι- (against) with τάσσω (to arrange). It conveys the idea of actively opposing or resisting authority.
In this context, it indicates a continuous action of standing against the authority established by God, highlighting the seriousness of such resistance.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The Berean Standard Bible translates the verse as 'whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place,' while the King James Version uses 'resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God.' Both convey the same fundamental idea but differ in wording.
The translations vary particularly in how they render the Greek word ἐξουσία. The BSB and others use 'authority', while the KJV opts for 'power'. Such differences reflect varying interpretations of the nature of the authority being discussed.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause of the verse is governed by the finite verb ἀνθέστηκεν, which means 'has resisted.' This clause is supported by a noun phrase that identifies the subject and a participial phrase describing those who resist.
The structure emphasizes the relationship between the act of resistance and the consequences that follow, with the subject and object clearly defined.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἐξουσία appears in the Septuagint, often translating terms related to authority or power, such as מַלְכוּ (malchut), which refers to kingship or dominion. This connection reinforces the biblical understanding of authority as divinely instituted.
The term κρίμα also has roots in the Septuagint, where it translates the Hebrew word מִשְׁפָּט (mishpat), meaning judgment or decision, further linking the concept of divine judgment to the context of authority.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Romans 13:2 teaches that anyone who resists authority is opposing what God has established. This verse warns that such opposition brings judgment upon oneself, emphasizing the importance of respecting the authority that God has put in place.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
To resist authority means to oppose or stand against those who have been placed in positions of power, which Paul indicates is a direct opposition to God's will.
Submission to authority is important because Paul teaches that all authority comes from God, and resisting it equates to resisting God's established order.
Paul is referring to governing authorities, which can include political leaders and institutions that maintain order and justice in society.
The consequences of resisting authority include bringing judgment upon oneself, as the verse warns that such actions are contrary to God's ordinance.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways can I show respect for the authorities in my life?
- How does understanding God's role in establishing authority change my perspective on submission?
- What are some examples of authority figures I can support in my community?
- How can I respond when I disagree with an authority figure while still honoring their position?

Modern formal
Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
Therefore he who resists the authority withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgment.
Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
So the person who resists such authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will incur judgment
Tyndale line
Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment.
Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment.
Whoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
Whosoeuer therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist, shall receiue to themselues condemnation.
Strictly literal
So that he that sets himself in opposition to the authority resists the ordinance of God; and they who [thus] resist shall bring sentence of guilt on themselves.
so that he who is setting himself against the authority, against God's ordinance hath resisted; and those resisting, to themselves shall receive judgment.
so that he who is setting himself against the authority, has resisted against God’s ordinance; and those resisting will receive judgment to themselves.
Therefore he who resists that authority opposes the command of God; and those who oppose it will receive judgment on themselves.
From the Latin
Therefore he that resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God. And they that resist, purchase to themselves damnation.
Simplified
Whoever resists the authorities opposes what God has put in place, and those who do so shall find themselves judged accordingly.
For which reason everyone who puts himself against the authority puts himself against the order of God: and those who are against it will get punishment for themselves.

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.
Itaque qui resistit potestati, Dei ordinationi resistit. Qui autem resistunt, ipsi sibi damnationem acquirunt :
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܡܢ ܕܩܐܡ ܗܟܝܠ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܩܐܡ ܘܗܠܝܢ ܕܩܝܡܝܢ ܠܘܩܒܠܗܘܢ ܕܝܢܐ ܢܣܒܘܢ

Where a cell says a work has no entry, that work genuinely has none for this word.
The Greek word ὥστε is a conjunction that expresses result, often translated as 'so that' or 'therefore.' It can be used with infinitives to indicate intended outcomes, as well as with indicative and subjunctive moods. The New Testament frequently employs hōste to connect actions and their consequences, appearing in various contexts, including teachings and narratives.
ὥστε. 1. For the construction c. inf. denoting result ‘‘so as to,” the stress being laid on the dependence of the result on its cause (cf. Mt 834, Lk 439, a/.) we may cite BGU I. 2718 (ii/A.D.) (= Selections, p. 101) καθ᾽ ἡμέραν προσδεχόμ[ε]θα διμι[σ]σωρίαν, ὥστε ἕως σήμερον μηδέν᾽ ἀπολελύσθαι τῶν μετὰ σίτου, ‘‘daily we are waiting for our discharge, so that up till to-day no one of us in the corn service has been let go,” P Oxy X. 127914 (A.D. 139) ἐπιδέχομαι μισθώσασθαι ἐκ τοῦ δημοσίου. . . ἀρούρας τρεῖς... ὥστε κατ᾽ ἔτος σπεῖραι καὶ ξυλαμῆσαι οἷς ἐὰν αἱρῶμαι, “1 consent to lease from the State three arourae, on condition that I may sow and plant the land with any crop which I choose” (Edd.), 24. 12557 (A.D. 292) ἐπειθεμένου σου ἡμῖν ὥστε ἐν ἀσφαλεῖ ἔχειν τοὺς καρποὺς ἐν ταῖς ἁλωνίαις, “‘having been enjoined by you to keep in safety the crops at the threshing floors” (Edd.), 26.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own.

The Greek word ἀντιτάσσω (i.e., *antitassō*) means to oppose or resist, often in a military context. It is built from the prefix ἀντι- (against) and a form of τάσσω (to arrange). The New Testament uses it in several verses, including Acts 18:6 and Romans 13:2, to convey the idea of setting oneself against authority or opposition.
ἀντιτάσσω. The verb occurs twice in P Oxy IV. 707i 17, 38 (c, a.p. 136), a report of legal proceedings, with reference to the opposing party. P Cattaoui verso} 7 (mid. ii/A.D.) (= Chrest. II. p. 98) τῆς ἀντιτεταγμένης ἀρτίως Δρουσίλλας. There are several instances in OGZS in a military sense, which was of course the earliest.
ἀντιτάσσω (antitassō) — to resist.
ἀντιτάσσω,
Attic dialect ἀντιτάττω, set opposite to, range in battle against, τὸ ἄριστον ἀ. Πέρσῃσι[Refs 5th c.BC+]; ἀ. τὸν νόμον πρὸς τὴν ἀναίδειαν set the law in opposition to their impudence, [Refs 5th c.BC+]:—so in middle, πρὸς τὸ ἐμπειρότερον αὐτῶν τὸ τολμηρότερον ἀντιτάξασθε[Refs 5th c.BC+]
II. middle, set oneself against, meet face to face, ἀντιτάξομαι κτενῶν σε[Refs 5th c.BC+]:—passive, to be drawn out in array against, τινί[Refs 5th c.BC+]
II.2. generally, oppose, resist, [NT+2nd c.BC+]

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word ἐξουσία (i.e., *exousia*) refers to power or authority, derived from the root meaning 'to be permitted.' It encompasses various forms of authority, including legal, governmental, and personal power, as well as the ability to act freely. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts related to Jesus' authority, apostolic power, and judicial authority, notably in Matthew and Luke.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

θεός (theos) means 'God' or 'a god' and is used in both singular and plural forms. It refers to the supreme deity in monotheistic contexts, as well as to lesser deities in polytheistic settings. The New Testament frequently employs this term, notably in verses like Matthew 27:46 and Acts 19:37. Some lexicons note its use as a title for rulers or magistrates, reflecting its broader application in ancient texts.

God
(A.S. and Dutch God; Dan. Gud; Ger. Gott), the name of the Divine Being. It is the rendering (1) of the Hebrew ’El, from a word meaning to be strong; (2) of ’Eloah_, plural _’Elohim. The singular form, Eloah, is used only in poetry. The plural form is more commonly used in all parts of the Bible, The Hebrew word Jehovah (q.v.), the only other word generally employed to denote the Supreme Being, is uniformly rendered in the Authorized Version by “LORD,” printed in small capitals. The existence of God is taken for granted in the Bible. There is nowhere any argument to prove it. He who disbelieves this truth is spoken of as one devoid of understanding (Ps. 14:1).
The arguments generally adduced by theologians in proof of the being of God are:
(1.) The a priori argument, which is the testimony afforded by reason.
(good). Throughout the Hebrew Scriptures two chief names are used for the one true divine Being--ELOHIM, commonly translated God in our version, and JEHOVAH, translated Lord . Elohim is the plural of Eloah (in Arabic Allah); it is often used in the short form EL (a word signifying strength , as in EL-SHADDAI, God Almighty, the name by which God was specially known to the patriarchs. (Genesis 17:1; 28:3; Exodus 6:3) The etymology is uncertain, but it is generally agreed that the primary idea is that of strength, power of effect , and that it properly describes God in that character in which he is exhibited to all men in his works, as the creator, sustainer and supreme governor of the world. The plural form of Elohim has given rise to much discussion. The fanciful idea that it…
This name, the derivation of which is uncertain, we give to that eternal, infinite, perfect, and incomprehensible Being, the Creator of all things, who preserves and governs all by his almighty power and wisdom, and is the only proper object of worship. The proper Hebrew name for God is JEHOVAH, which signifies He is. But the Jews, from a feeling of reverence, avoid pronouncing this name, substituting for it, wherever it occurs in the sacred test, the word ADONAI, Lord; except in the expression, ADONAI JEHOVAH, Lord Jehovah, for which they put, ADONAI ELOHIM, Lord God. This usage, which is not without an element of superstition, is very ancient, dating its origin some centuries before Christ; but there is no good ground for assuming its existence in the days of the inspired Old Testament writers. The proper word for God is ELOHIM, which is plural in its form, being thus used to signify…

διαταγή (diatagē) refers to an arrangement or ordinance, derived from the verb διατάσσω (diatassō). It encompasses meanings such as command, institution, and disposition, and is used in contexts like legal or ecclesiastical orders. The New Testament references include Romans 13:2 and Acts 7:53. Moulton & Milligan note its broader usage beyond biblical contexts, including testamentary dispositions.

1. Old Testament Use:
This word generally represents chuqqah, something prescribed, enactment, usually with reference to matters of ritual. In the King James Version the same word is frequently translated by "statute" or "statutes," which is also the rendering of a similar Hebrew word, namely, choq. the Revised Version (British and American) generally retains "ordinance," but sometimes substitutes "statute" (e.g. Ex 18:20; Ps 99:7). In one instance the Revised Version (British and American) renders "set portion" (Eze 45:14). The word generally has a religious or ceremonial significance. It is used for instance in connection with the Passover (Ex 12:43;

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word ἑαυτοῦ (i.e., *heautou*) is a reflexive pronoun meaning 'of himself, herself, itself,' and is used primarily in the third person. It appears in various contexts throughout the New Testament, often indicating actions done by a subject to themselves or emphasizing possession. Additionally, it can serve as a reciprocal pronoun in plural forms, indicating mutual actions among individuals.

The Greek word κρίμα (krima) is derived from κρίνω (krino) and primarily means 'judgment' or 'decision.' It encompasses various contexts, including legal decisions, condemnations, and God's judgment, appearing in several New Testament verses such as Matthew 7:2 and Romans 2:2. Some lexicons note its use in a forensic sense, while others emphasize its theological implications.

Is put, in Mt 5:21,22, for a court of judgment, a tribunal, namely, the tribunal of seven judges, which Josephus mentions as existing in every city, and which decided causes of minor importance. See under SYNAGOGUE.
For the expression, "judgment-hall," see PRETORIUM.
THE DAY OF JUDGMENT, for which the word "judgment" alone is sometimes used, is that great day, at the end of the world and of time, when Christ shall sit as judge over all the universe, and when every individual of the human race will be judged and recompensed according to his works, whether they be good or evil. The time of its coming and its duration are known only to God. It will break upon the world suddenly, and with a glorious but awful majesty. It will witness the perfect vindication of all the ways of God. The revelation of his justice, appalling but unstained…

λαμβάνω (lambanō) means both 'to take' and 'to receive,' covering a wide range of applications from literal actions like grasping or seizing to more abstract uses such as accepting ideas or concepts. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts involving physical actions (e.g., taking bread in Mt 26:26) or receiving something (e.g., receiving a message in Jn 6:21). The lexicons note that the word can also imply a sense of violence or urgency in some contexts.
