Are you aware of any commentator, in the history of the
church, who has interpreted Romans 2:4 in such a way? I
have not been able to find a single one who views AGEI as
other than conative, but I've only looked at a dozen or so.
Thanks,
Jim

do not recognize his merits. His only anxiety
is lest he should fail to recognize theirs.
