# Connecting Statement:
Paul talks here about his obligation to preach.
# we have received grace and apostleship
God has given Paul the gift of being an apostle. You can translate this in an active form. Alternate translation: "God caused me to be an apostle. This is a special privilege" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
# for obedience of faith among all the nations, for the sake of his name
Paul uses the word "name" as a metonym to refer to Jesus. Alternate translation: "in order to teach all nations to obey because of their faith in him" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
