Contextual Overview

22 For this cause I haue ben oft let, that I coulde not come vnto you. 23 But nowe, seyng I haue no more to do in these countreys, and also haue ben desirous many yeres to come vnto you: 24 Whensoeuer I take my iourney into Spayne, I wyll come to you: For I trust to see you in my iourney, and to be brought on my waye thytherwarde by you, after that I be somewhat fylled with you. 25 But nowe go I vnto Hierusalem, to minister vnto the saintes. 26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia & Achaia to make a certaine comon gatheryng for the poore saintes whiche are at Hierusalem. 27 It hath pleased them veryly, & their detters are they. For yf the gentiles be made partakers of their spirituall thynges, their duetie is to minister vnto the in carnall thynges. 28 When I haue perfourmed this, and haue sealed to the this fruite, I wyll come by you into Spayne. 29 And I am sure, that when I come vnto you, I shall come with aboundaunce of the blessyng of the Gospell of Christe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For which cause also,.... By reason of being employed for so many years, in preaching the Gospel from Jerusalem, round about to Illyricum; taking so large a compass to minister in, and striving to introduce, propagate, and spread the Gospel, where Christ was never named before:

I have been much hindered from coming to you; or he had been often, and by many ways, and upon many accounts, hindered from coming to them; the frequent calls to different and distant places, and the great work of preaching the Gospel in those dark parts of the world, and settling churches there, which was upon his hands, prevented his giving them a visit at Rome, which he much and often desired: as in the preceding verses the apostle excuses his freedom of writing to this church, so here his long delay of coming to them, assigning the reason of it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For which cause - I have been so entirely occupied in this leading purpose of my life, that I have not been able to come to you.

Much hindered - Many ways; not many times. I had so frequent and urgent demands on my time elsewhere, that I could not come to you.

From coming to you - Where the gospel “has been” preached. I have desired to come, but have been unable to leave the vast region where I might preach the gospel to those who had never heard it.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 22. For which cause, c.] My considering it a point of honour to build on no other man's foundation and, finding that the Gospel has been long ago planted at Rome, I have been prevented from going thither, purposing rather to spend my time and strength in preaching where Christ has not, as yet, been proclaimed.
