This study argues that the phrase "righteousness of God" in Rom 1:17 should be understood as a reference to a particular OT concept of God's righteousness. It engages this widely discussed question by means of an intertextual-communicative approach that is open to the possibility that an author may refer to relevant concepts that have been enriched in other texts. It finds the enrichment of a concept of God's righteousness in the Psalms and the second half of Isaiah to be highly relevant to Paul's argument in Rom 1:16-17. Specifically, in these texts the revelation of God's righteousness occurs in a decisive act of salvation for God's people that summons all nations to turn to God and be saved themselves, and this explains why the fact that God's righteousness is revealed in the gospel renders the gospel God's power for salvation. As such, Paul's claim that God's righteousness is revealed in the gospel is primarily a claim that the decisive saving action proclaimed in the gospel-the resurrection of Jesus-fulfills this particular OT expectation.This means that the phrase "righteousness of God" in Rom 1:17 is not a direct reference to the free gift of righteousness from God that Paul will go on to articulate in the next three chapters of Romans. Instead, by situating the events of the gospel in the OT discourse about God's righteousness, it provides the basis for this teaching. The paradigmatic role of the salvation of God's people in the OT suggests that the resurrection of Jesus is paradigmatic for the resurrection of those who believe, and according to Hab 2:4 both are "by faith." Moreover, the death of Jesus as a demonstration of God's righteous judgment against the one who represents the whole world means that the resurrection of Jesus should be understood as the representative justification by faith of the one who identified with and as the ungodly. As such, this study concludes that Paul's argument for justification by faith gains clarity and coherence precisely when his language of "righteousness of God" is rooted in the conceptual world of the OT.
