Abstract

The article is devoted to the disclosure of the topic of the Judgment of God on the example of the passage (Rom. 1, 18–32). The topic of the Judgment of God is important for the study of biblical theology and Christian moral teaching. It is common to the epistles of the Apostle Paul, but it is especially revealed in the epistle to the Romans and takes on a new shade in the context of all Holy Scripture and Jewish theology. The passage Rom. 1, 18–32 represents the first presentation of the theme of the Judgment of God in this epistle of St. Paul the Apostle. It is possible to trace the motive, function, object and grounds of the Judgment of the Lord over man in this passage.
