13:1 Everyone must submit to governing authorities. Here the “authorities” (exousiai [1849, 2026]) are not cosmic spiritual powers (as in 8:38; Eph 1:21; 3:10; 6:12; Col 1:16; 2:10, 15) but civil authorities or officials. Some see a double reference in this term, both to civil authorities and to angelic powers that stand behind and act through the civil authorities. For a fuller discussion of the interpretation of “authorities,” see Cranfield 1981:656–659; Moo 1996:795–796; for “submit” (hupotassomai [5293A, 5718]), see comments below. Cf. Moo 1996:797, who draws a distinction between “submit” and “obey.”

In Romans 12 Paul has developed our four basic Christian relationships, namely to God (1–2), to ourselves (3–8), to one another (9–16) and to our enemies (17–21). In Romans 13 he develops three more—to the state (conscientious citizenship, 1–7), to the law (neighbour-love as its fulfilment, 8–10), and to the day of the Lord’s return (living in the “already” and the “not yet”, 11–14)..
