For--saith the scripture
whosoever--The expression is emphatic, "Everyone whosoever"
shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved-- (Joel 2:32); quoted also by Peter, in his great Pentecostal sermon (Acts 2:21), with evident application to Christ.
For the scripture saith--in Isaiah 28:16, a glorious Messianic passage.
Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed--Here, as in Romans 9:33, the quotation is from the Septuagint, which renders those words of the original, "shall not make haste" (that is, fly for escape, as from conscious danger), "shall not be put to shame," which comes to the same thing.
